Ahh. This really is my soapbox area, I didn't mean to assume.

The other thought is finding a community-based clinic with time-limited treatment that can help one learn the steps to take to work with one's depression and then work forward from there, with or without further counseling support. I don't know of they have them there but most in the US have someone overseeing the place that has training. Not necessarily a psychologist, which is where my loyalty lies. I specifically did not choose psychiatry because I wanted to counsel people and NOT have to make 15'minute med management appointments and send th patients on their way. I enjoy the nitty gritty parts of the human mind and the deep, dark, "not normal" stuff that , in reality a lot of the time, the person next to them on the train is trying to deal with, too. We're all diagnosible in Mental Health Land.
