I presume you are seeing a doctor for the depression....
Is it clinical or emotional?

I've finally managed to beat mine down permanently for the most part
(except brief moments during PMS episodes <G>)

I'd be delighted to share tips on dealing with it.

Mine was not clinical.
It was due to the loss of my soul mate...

Kinda takes the wind out of your sails, so I understand.

Hugs!!!!!!
