Hi everyone,
I'm a 33 year old male and have had depression since my mid 20s or so.
I don't know what to do about it.
I have spoken to friends about this, I have seen a therapist, and I have been prescribes antidepressants (which I haven't taken so far).
I don't feel anywhere near as bad as my worst.
At my worst I was crippled, I felt like I weighed a tonne and I couldn't move.
Now my feelings/emotions are not as strong so it is more bearable.
But, I feel absolutely no positive feelings at all.
My entire emotional range consists of sorrow, sadness, regret and guilt.
I look forward to nothing, I am interested in very little, it is difficult to keep my concentration.
I guess what I am trying to ask is do I take the antidepressants?
I don't feel horrible... but I just don't feel (and have not felt for a very long time) any positive feelings.
