    Yup. And my depression is often accompanied by flu like symptoms, so even saying I’m sick doesn’t work most of the time.

    As an anonymous dolt, you just have to agree its hard to see it in another way if ‘wait it out’ seems to be taking months!

    I know it’s like a cold but treating like one let’s IT control you and you have to break free from it. It’s hard but we all have to keep fighting

      I disagree. Treating it like a cold lets you know it’s a medical problem which you need to seek treatment if it gets worse. Not getting proper medical treatment is what allows the depression to control you because trying to will away depression is a harder road to recovery.

    Addiction is finally being identified and treated as disease. Is there any hope of depression and anxiety being seen like that too.

    I live on the East Coast of the US. Even with health insurance, its extremely hard to find a qualified therapist. I’ve tried generalized counceling, and unfortunately CBT/DBT is very popular because its standardized, but conterproductive to me, Medical providers frequently tell me my depression needs to be treated. I’ve been sent for eval in hospital once or twice. The outcome always seems to be the same. I answer interview questions as honestly as possible, and I get sent home. I’m fine with going home- except nothing seems to change. I’m almost 50, and been been slogging through this for decades.
