I've suffered depression on and off since my late teens- probably earlier, without the acknowledgement of "sadness" and "crying' as symptoms in the past. In my mid twenties I had episodes where I was inconsolable for days at a time. I've never gone manic or felt as though I could, although sometimes I am just "numb" and don't feel anything about anything. I take medication regularly and feel that my GP has little idea what goes on in my life or my head and isn't really interested as she has far more to worry about. I cope OK, but hope to be a lot better. As at 27/03/08 the Zung test says I am just over the line into "normality". I could feel a lot better!
