I suffered from severe depression for a year, but in the past 6 months, since a change in medication, I've been feeling a lot better. I just started a new job and it's very stressful at the minute and I can feel my "warning symptoms" of depression creeping back in. I'm irritable and tearful, and I want to just curl up in bed all the time. I know these are signs that my depression isn't well controlled right now, but I don't know what to do about it.
How can I fight this so that I don't end up really low again? I don't think I could go through it all again, but I'm really worried that if I don't do something NOW, I'll spiral back down into that dark pit again. What should I do to stop that happening?
