Man this could be a very long answer, but i'll
try to keep it short for you!. I have severe social anxiety
which often caused me to get depressed!.
I first seeked out mediactaion and was perscribed
Zoloft!. When i got off this medication i felt like i had the
same anti-social pessomistic attitude i've always had!.
This is when i realized i needed to get help for my
problems w/ social anxiety first and hopefully that would
help out w/ depression as well!. I found out about
the Stanford Shyness Clinic in Palo Alto, California!.
With the help(1 yr!.) of their cognitive therapy techniques
i have become almost completely comfortable in most social situations!. If you live anywhere near cantral california i would strongly reccomend you seek their help as i reluctantly did!.
If not, i also reccomend u read a book by a Stanford psychologist called Shyness by Dr!. Phillip G!. Zimbardo!.
Hope i could help, u can overcome these feelings of
hopelessness, you must dedicate yourself though!. Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well besides medication, do you have a therapist or psychologist!? Because psychotherapy can really help if you find the right person!. If you really don't want medication (which I do agree with you on that one, it is prescribed way too often), then I would try psychotherapy!. Only then, if you really don't see any results and you can't stand the depression or it keeps making your life difficult, I would try medication!. That way you haven't just jumped to the last resort, you tried your options!. It wouldn't be fair to deprive yourself of something that could really help you!. That is what makes you stronger; accepting what you need!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
