Greetings, all.
I'm Russell and I live with treatment-resistant Major Depressive Disorder and Generalized Anxiety Disorder. I've struggled with mental illness most of my life, I take medicine and receive therapy to treat it. I've been through a lot of experiences - triumphs and setbacks, remission, recovery, replapse. If you have treatment resistant/refractory depression or if you have general questions about depression and related conditions, feel free to shoot me a message.
So glad to meet you all!
@Russellistrying Hello there russel! c: Despite your struggles with facing mental illness, I'm still happy that you're getting the professional help you need such as taking meds and receiving therapy! I believe that most of the mental illnesses don't have cure. It's just a matter of knowing how to cope and manage it!
Welcome to the depression support community!
@Russellistrying Hi Russell. Nice to meet you!
