I have been struggling with depression since late last year. I finally got the courage to go to a doctor in April but that experience has left me feeling really lost. I was prescribed an antidepressant but after a lot of back and forth with myself, I decided against medication due to previous experiences I’ve had. The only other thing that came from my doctors appointment was being put on a long waiting list for further assessment and therapy etc. I don’t know what to do now. There’s so much information online to the point where it’s overwhelming. I just don’t feel equipped to deal with this. I just want my spark back so badly but I feel like I’m losing myself more and more each day.
