Corri, I'm happy to hear that you're doing better.

In my book, there's no merit in "battling through on your own" when a tool is available, and you are clear-eyed about using it. It makes more sense to use zoloft than to down a bottle of Jack Daniels-- THAT'S medication, too.
My Type 4 sister who suffers from periodic depression went to a psychiatrist who asked her patients what "street drugs" they used that temporarily made them feel better in order to figure out what legal drug to prescribe. For instance, people who tended to drink would get a different prescription than people who tended to smoke pot. My sister thought this was a brilliant diagnostic tool.
