Purpose
I started this blog with specific thing in mind last thursday i went to see a counselor at the health center because it is free and one of my roommates had been cutting herself and i didn't know what to do also i haven't been sleeping well and have been more socially inept then usual so yeah went to the counselor and he told me that i have depression. He also told me that if i didn't make improvements in the next few weeks i would need to start taking medication. That scared the crap out of me so i decided that i want to improve myself so i now have weekly sessions with him and my next one is on thursday but i am newrvous. i don't know i don't really feel like i am depressed yeah i don't really connect with people well and yeah i have crazy bad self esteembut isn't that typical of most girls? aside from the people thing anyway. And it is not like i can't talk to people at all like i love my roommates and i have a few guy friends who i can really talk with but i don't talk to people in my classes i always have my ipod in it is so much easier that way. Anyhow i got off topic so the purpose of this blog is to document my improvement as well as to contain my thoughts and feelings about this whole depression thing ok i am out time for bed

Hi there. I too suffer from depression and I know exactly how you feel about meds. I however was unable to resolve my issues without them. For some people it gets to the stage where the chemical imbalance is always going to be there no matter what emotional changes you make. Anyway...its not as bad as it sounds...it doesnt make you a fruit loop. Just consider it seriously, because I found that it was a real life saver. Talk to your Doctor about the types of meds you can take and the affects of them. Best of Luck. *Big Hugs*
