How did any of you know when you needed to see a psychiatrist or get on an antidepressant? I personally think I'm kinda screwed up on more than one corner.....seems like most of the time I feel ultra-overwhelmed with the world and feel like I'm drowning in simply everyday life. I'm not suicidal or anything, it's just that the overload of stress and depression is trashing my physical health (stress-related heart problems and I just turned 25) and I don't really know how or who to talk to about it. I know I stress out about things most people wouldn't, but nothing in my job or home-life would ever get done if I didn't keep on it and do it personally. I guess I'm just wondering if the antidepressants are something that would help me keep from feeling like the ocean of life isn't closing over my head faster than I can tread water. I don't think I made any sense in this post, but I appreciate being able to offload a little of this off my mind.
