how long does it take for a person to start recovering from depression?!


Question: How long does it take for a person to start recovering from depression?
ive been having mental issues (namely depression, anxiety, and cutting) for 9 or 10 months by now, and ive been talking out my issues since november and i started taking antidepressants a week ago and; its seems that if im getting any better its at a rather slow rate and im as tempted to cut now as i ever was because im as depressed and anxious as ive ever been (i know it takes a few weeks for antidepressants to start to work)

Answers:

Please hang in there!!! I know a couple of weeks sounds like FOREVER when you are going through it but it will get better. It is a slow process but hang in there and eventually the medicine will kick in. Is there anyway you can see a psychiatrist in the meantime to help you deal with handling it all while your medicine is kicking in?



It is left to the sweet will or whims and fancies of the individual.

I mean it all depends on mental strength, mental maturity, mental stability or mental steadiness.

Sometime, these feelings are self-invited, or self-generated and sometime it is thrust on us because of suppression, oppression, victimization of harassment and sometimes it may happen due to bad luck or bad time.

If you don't want to see a psychiatrist, there is a chance for further complications to occur. In the meantime, it is, therefore, better to select a reliable and wise mentor of your own choice and listen to his words scrupulously in letter and spirit. It will solve your problems.
