I was wondering if you all would be interested in adding a "Family and Friends of People living with depression" on the Forum.
I was just thinking that it might be helpful for them to have a Forum too. Let me know what you think.

It's great you took the time to find this board. I hope you keep posting. I like Obayan's advice to you. This is a battle worth fighting. I'm new here too and I am grateful I found this site.

Have faith and I can only hope that you keep up the good fight.

I don't know you, but I can only hope that in time you can reflect back in you life and see that although you have been victimized you have also survived. That t...

I'm new here and I'm so grateful to have found this site. I have MDD and Anxiety. My medication hasn't been working and I've had quite a set back. I'm seeing my psychiatrist tomorrow for a new assessment and a change in my medication. I don't think that any of the other medications ever really worke...
