Hi Dr, I was diagnosed with major depressive disorder 7 -8 years ago. Took about 18/12 to get the right meds, am currently on efexfor venlaflaxine 375mg daily. I have been really great, but in the last 6/12 I am not as good as I was, if I didn t have to go to work I would stay in bed, I don t enjoy living, I wouldn t to myself as it would be so damaging to my nieces and nephews, but equally so I still wish to wake up dead, to be told I have cancer, if I was given that diagnosis I would choose not to be treated, can one get depressed ontop of depression, or am I just failing to continue to hold on to things that have worked before, or is it a case of needing to change my meds which I don t want to do as I no longer have the same support group around me having moved. in fact I don t have anyone around me that I share with
