I was diagnosed with depression in March '10. I went on a antidepressants for about 6 weeks, but the side effects were to much and I quit taking them. I realized in late July that I needed to get back on them and tried a different one. In Oct '10, I started IC.
I feel bad for not trying a different AD sooner. I feel guilt for not starting IC sooner too. I blame myself for where my M is. I know I need to get over that.
Things are much better, for the most part, with the depression.
Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet. --Jean Jacques Rousseau.
