    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      Tried much, much hasn’t worked. Lately the emotional pain got so intense that curiously I became more accepting of my miserable experience which has given me some relief and I intend to use this newly available energy to explore/experiment with another push for a happier improved life. Wish me luck! I hope to meet and network with similar minded people and useful experience.

      Treatments

      Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Somewhat Helpful
      Found it very clinical though was a while ago now, was really hard work and I don't think I was ready for it then, may try again.
      Lexapro Somewhat Helpful
      Worked really well in the begining and gave me some new thinking, 'insights'and may be of some help but it's efficacy is now unoticable and I'm as depressed as I've ever been!Though now I'm a little better positioned with improved mental processes hence 'insight'
      Meditation Not Working
      Tried courses and individual lessons but havn't been able to do much with it.
      Positive Thinking Considering
      Well getting back up to have another go? Need more positivity to balance the depression and pain so seeking out humour and the 'Oprah' type path.
      Prozac Not Working
      Only worked for a brief period at the begining.
      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      Much incompetence out there!The best:Experienced being held in positive regard and felt loved, was a breakthrough but not a final solution

      I shine when I feel loved and heard and feel good about myself.
