diane, Welcome to The Depression Center. We thank you for sharing your story with us today. This support group is full of supportive individuals who may be able to help you answer some questions regarding depression. It is great to hear that you are working your doctor. In the meantime please feel free to roam the site at your own pace. If you look to the left of the screen under "TOOLS" you will find many supportive tests. These tests are not diagnostic tools and are not a replacement or substitute for a physicians advice. The purpose of these tests is to prepare you with information that you can present to your physician. When you're finished the test, you can either print your Final Report or email it directly to your doctor. We also have developed a Depression Program. This program is 16-weeks and involves the tools mentioned above. Each session is based on the previous session, so we strongly advise that you work slowly through the program and not jump ahead. If you have any questions or concerns with our "TOOLS" you can contact our support department at support@depressioncenter.net. Take care and we hope to hear from you soon.

I am a 47 year old woman who feels 80. I just started this program and am hopeful that it will help, cause I need help! I live in Monterey County and have no insurance, I can get meds from the MIA program, but there is no program for people without $ to see a professional. My GP is ok, but is mostly guessing about meds and dosages. I am flunking out of school and broke, but am in too much pain to get a job. IT SUCKS! That's probably too much info for this forum, but what the heck.
