i suffer from depression mate and i took an overdose just before xmas as everything around me was falling down i landed myself in the hospital for 3 days,and through all that ive realised its ur close friends you need the most and a goal to motivate yourself. Ive been to the docs in the past and imo the people who you talk to shouldent be doing that job unless they have been through something like it themselvs they just seem to talk shit and look down on you and try and stay away from any tablets because they just mask the problems (thats only my experience everyone is different) but u have taken the biggest step now , i hope everything works out for you mate
