It's true... it's been this long without help. I'm just afraid that it's getting worse. Each day seems harder than the last. But that might just be mental fatigue over how 'the same' every day seems to be rather than it actually being worse.
I'm sure she'd prescribe something different if I asked, but all strong medications that target both depression and anxiety seem to come with a whole plethora of bad side-effects and withdrawal difficulties, I suppose just by their brain-chemical-altering nature. I might try calling her and talking about it, though. I'm not happy that this particular drug is linked to migraines, which I already get.
