Im depressed, i talk with a counsler once a week but its not helping what more i!

I am astonished to here that your counselor has not suggested this sooner, they are probably not licensed to prescribe medicine, you may need to coordinate with your regular doctor and your counselor!. Don't feel weird asking to try the meds, hey if they don't work, you can always stop with your docs help!. It worth a shot if it helps! Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hello,,depression has many faces,,is there something specific that you think about!?have you been into drugs and alcohol and just can't get your mind back!? that happens you know,,you are not the only one!. perhaps just a change in lifestyle would help,,I suggest you take walks,play a musical instrument,the perspective of having so much activity may allow you to think of other things and change your mood!. Drugs do help some, but some trigger the desire to get deeper into the moment and with depression who wants to get deeper into the darkness!. Tell yourself every day and especially at might before you go to sleep,,this will not take control of me and my life,,the power of positive suggestion works if you live it!.Good Luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Medication may be a good idea!. There's no harm in asking for medication, just as flu sufferers ask for flu medicine!. Depression is an illness, just like flu and diabetes!. Medication has helped a lot of patients, and depression, being a chemical imbalance in the brain, can be helped by taking medicine that balances the chemicals in the brain!.

You may like to switch counsellor!.

Here are some more advice, most of which I wrote myself:

What is depression!?
Depression is more than the blues or the blahs; it is more than the normal, everyday ups and downs!. When that "down" mood, along with other symptoms, lasts for more than a couple of weeks, the condition may be clinical depression!. Clinical depression is a serious health problem that affects the total person!. In addition to feelings, it can change behavior, physical health and appearance, academic performance, social activity and the ability to handle everyday decisions and pressures!.
Depression may be caused by negative thoughts, poor circumstances, loss of loved ones, genetic factors, biochemical imbalance in the brain, emptiness in heart, unforgiveness, addictions etc!. Very often, a combination of genetic, psychological, and environmental factors is involved in the onset of a depressive disorder!.

Some of the symptoms of depression are!.!.!.
