I thought I was getting better...
Depression Support / by Beanbear

...See more Hi, Like others, I had a really rough time a couple of years ago and was diagnosed with depression after a great deal of denial. I have been on medication for the past year, but was determined to get myself off of it before I went on holiday and started a new chapter of my life at university this September. I believed that I was truly ready to come off the medication... I mean I had a few down days, but then so does everyone?!  I have now started university and am really enjoying it! But I can feel myself slipping back into the depressive state. I've tried to stop myself, but it just feels like once I've had the illness I'll never get rid of it. I just want to be my old self again, and wondered whether there is anyone who has truly left their depression behind and fully recovered? I just need a little bit of hope please.... And guidance :)
