I have all sorts of depressive symptoms, sometimes mild and as a background noise and sometimes severe and delusional (especially during pms). I used to be often very cheerful and even euphoric at times, but since i used medication this was lost. There are still things - my son especially - that give me joy though.

Now and then i contemplate starting antidepressants, but i dont like how they make me feel. Artificial Disneyland happiness sounds accurate. :slight_smile:

Yeah I have serious depression as well. For me the positives aren’t as bad as depression. I get it real bad but after a lot of trial and error found effexor is the only med to work for me. Happy about that.

Depression was a major issue for me until I got it mostly sorted out with meds. I’m still depressed but not to the extent of feeling utterly hopeless like before.

I do if I’m not medicated.

I get severe depression if I’m not on meds
(On meds it’s mild to moderate). I have never taken an antidepressant in the 18 years since I started treatment though, because the pdocs all said I’d get mania. I have bipolar type sza. So I take mood stabiliser called Lamotrigine which is supposed to help with depression too. And it does :blush:

No depression. Just really joint achy and brain inflamed. Makes me mad.
