Depression, how to kick the blues.

What is it with depression? Why do I feel so blue? It's not seasonal as these dark feelings follow me all year around. Some days I wake up and think: "What the fuck's it all about?" I don’t think that the pain I feel getting out of bed, nor indeed the pain that dogs me all day, is the driver of the depression. 

Late last year I attended some counselling sessions at which we tried to address the anger I feel. This year late in the late summer and into early autumn I underwent more counselling, this time in an attempt to dig down to the source of the depression. 

After six sessions I came away none the wiser as to why the depression manifests itself at inexplicable times. We did discuss areas of my life such as the traumatic head injury I received when I was sixteen. Though this injury left me with quite erratic mood swings, I don’t recall feeling depressed in the way I do today.

At a consultation last week my GP suggest anti-depressants. For years I’ve shunned medication for depression. At the moment I take four different types of pain-killers, antispastic meds, meds for an overactive bladder, pills for cholesterol, potions for my bowels, medicine to deal with antacid, asthma pumps and even medicated shampoo. 

At times I feel like a maraca as I rattle along, so I’m disinclined to pop more pills. My GP suggested Citalopram or Sertraline, another steroid med was mentioned but with a caveat of weight gain. I told the GP I would have a think about going down the anti-depressant road.

Can anyone out there advise me on the efficaciousness of Citalopram or Sertraline, or the downside to these meds?

  1. Sertraline made a huge difference to my hubby who has PTSD. Don't know anything about it's use for depression but it's been life changing for my husband.
