Hello,

And welcome. I am sorry to hear that you suffer from depression, but on the sad loss of my darling wife Lorna last year, I too suffered depression. Depression is nothing to be ashamed of, and for different reasons we can all suffer from depression at one juncture in lives.

When I found that I could no longer cope by myself I sought help. I had the money to go private to see a therapist and after a while, I found that this was one of the best things that I had done in life.

If you cannot afford to go private, make an appointment to see your doctor and tell them you are depressed and need help, then they will refer you to a councillor of one form or another and then you will start to get the help that you need.

I wish you well, and I hope that you will soon feel better.

Take great care

Kind regards

Richard

A good place to get information is NHS online, gives a very good description on the symptoms and if I remember right there is even a little online test.
