Depression seems to be winning. Over time my meds have changed, best i can hope for is not crying. Never a big difference and now i feel nothing, is hard to find a reason to get up. Going to doc, does anyone have input? Maybe an add on drug to boost. Thanks for listening

Changing depression medication
If you feel the drug is not working have words with your GP. If it helps write down what the problems are so you do not forget any urgent points.
You do not mention how long you have been on the medication. Also if there has been any changes in your condition

I take Celexa for anxiety and depression. It seems to be working for me. I'm at the highest dose and am afraid to ask for a new one. I've been on this for about 20yrs. Started out low dose and now at the top. I went thru several meds all with horrible side effects. Only to find out there are 2 serotonin types. S1 and S2. I can't take S1 category. Also I have a rescue ESA. She is my reason to get up, walk her which forces me to get outside and very comforting. As much as sometimes I don't want to especially in the cold and snow but she makes me! It's just what I needed. I hope you can find a way to break free from the horrible effects of depression.
Dear Wildcat, I'm sorry to hear about your suffering. Depression is such a hard enemy to defeat but there's always hope. I've been on medication for a while now and there are good and bad days. Please be kind to yourself, it's not your fault that you are suffering. The universe has a greater plan for you. Please enjoy life as it comes, day by day. Depression makes us forget the happy things in life like sunshine, the sounds of birds, animals affection towards us... I have been watching comedy films when I feel really sad and it has been helping me cope with difficult times. I'm also practising spirituality including attending church on christmas, setting up the christmas tree and praying. Please know that there is always something to be happy about. You're not alone.
