I've also suffered from depression for many years. I've just come back from a gp appointment....suffering with depression\anxiety...feel horrid ...just want to curl up and die. Have been prescribed beta blockers and sertraline ( have previously been in citalopram) so will wait and see if these help lift my mood. I hate myself for having this dreadful lurgy.
I do find it reassuring though to read other people have exactly the same feelings of despair. Onwards and upwards as they say!!
