I got diagnosed with depression at the beginning of the year and started meds and still waiting on therapy.

Not my first trip the this movie but first in about 9 years

My husband knows (been together 5 years) and a few close friends know.

Noone seems to give a damn (or that how it feels) noone checks in I've upped meds and he's mentioned how im feeling roughly twice in 8 months

I'm no good at asking for help but I just feel so unimportant

I've stayed on the same level of meds cos I've asked for more and the gp said no, probably a phone call that lasted 30 seconds or less.

Sorry to hear you are feeling that way. Depression is horrible.

I think though that sometimes people don't ask how you are because they are not sure if that is the right thing to do and are worried it would not be helpful.

Do you feel the medication has helped or are you still feeling bad?

If you have been on the medication for 6 months or so and are still struggling it would be worth trying to speak to your doctor again.

Hopefully therapy will be available for you soon.

I think you need to tell your husband how you feel.
