After years of denying that I may have depression, I finally talked to my GP about it.
I felt very uncomfortable about talking about this subject, but I pushed myself to talk about it, as I had put it off for far too long. I was asked the usual questions and was asked to fill in the short questionnaire etc.
I was asked what I wanted to do, I said that I didn't want to take medication, but I'd rather talk to someone instead. On top of this I suffer from rheumatoid arthritis, hypothyroidism, a form of discoid lupus etc that has added to my depression for around four years (and been struggling to get on top of my health issues).
I've been finding myself becoming more depressed (to the point I do not want to get out of bed in the morning or never waking up), never feeling happy and not feeling comfortable even with my close firends. I hardly talk when I am at home or when I'm out. Having social anxiety too doesn't help either.
