I take Wellbutrin it helps me. I've been fighting depression for about 20+ years and Wellbutrin seems to be the drug for me. I just had to lower the dose because of a side effect.

I think it’s social anxiety I deal with. I can conceal my nodules with relative ease but being that can change at any moment. I also have the guilt of passing it onto my daughters. My case is spontaneous but I knew ahead of time and still gambled.
It can be the little things like not being able to shave how I want, get my hair cut, take my shirt off in public, the emotional pain. Sometimes death seems better. I only hang in there for my daughters. I don’t think anything but a cure will alleviate depression 100%. Just have to tell ourselves it could be worse and hope our earthly geniuses can solve the riddle of chromosomes 17 and 22. There’s always hope. Hold on to hope!
