I know that I'm clinically depressed, manic depressive, a dysthymiac, and quite possibly psychotic depressive (which IS NOT the same as being psychotic.)
I went to see a doctor a few years back as a teenager, and she gave me Zoloft. They didn't work. Both she and I wanted to increase the dosage since what I was taking was the lowest at 25mg, if I remember correctly. She doubled it, but also as a side note, told me that this will go in my record. Scared, I took the pills, but after taking them once, I never took them again.
Back then I guess it was a mild depression, not really understanding much. But I knew there was something wrong with me because I was having such extreme episodes of melancholia.
Now, 5 years later, I think it manifested into something much bigger, and something much worse. What should I do? Should I take the pills again if I have to? I know I'll have to talk to a psychotherapist or psychologist eventually, but what if I have to take the pills again as well?
