I have recently turned 27. Ever since I can remember, I have lived with depression. Often times while I'm sitting in my apartment or at work I begin to think of when I was younger. I recall instances when I was as young as 8, waking up in the morning and putting on my school uniform while sobbing very quietly in hopes that mom would not hear. As a result, I was always late for school. Later on, at the age of 15, my parents shipped me off to a boarding school in dark and gloomy western Massachusetts (where I also attended college). While there, I began to see the school psychologist on a weekly basis. Eventually we became very good friends over the years. However, through all our sessions, I never really felt that he helped much. Looking back , it seems like he basically just nodded his head and agreed with all of my crazy ideas and or opinions. I have tried all types of medication, counseling, and spiritual healing....(whatever that is). So, here is my question. Am I doomed ?
