I'm so sorry you are feeling bad. You say you are on medication and still feel depressed. You need to talk to your doctor about this. Maybe he will change your medication or dosage. Antidepressants should make you feel better. Give yourself a pat on the back for being able to work part-time. Since you live alone now, be sure to seek out family and friends for companionship. Being alone gives you too much time to think. Congratulations on your becoming a nanny. You have a lot to look forward to. Please do see your doctor. He is there to help you. New meds may be the answer
