I am on the other side. I am the family member that is trying to deal with this in our family. It is very difficult because the reality is anything we do or say is not the right thing. We are trying to help, but it won't do any good until the depression is addressed. It must be difficult to decide to take meds, but your alternative might not be very bright. The doctor has a responsibility to find the right medicine for you. I am being pushed away in a major way, and I tried to deal with like he was thinking like me. I was very wrong. I went to a counselor, and they finally got it in my head that there was nothing I could do. That is a hard thing to come to terms with when you really love someone. I hope that you know that I care that you start feeling better and will always be here to listen.
