Whoa

Following the steps of my follower, I took a depression quiz. I used to take medication for depression. I started on a low dose of Prozac for about a year before it had to be doubled, then tripled. Then I moved to Lexapro; after 6 months, they added Welbutrin. THEN, they added Clonazepam, and anti-anxiety drug.
Then one day, I came to the realization that all these medications aren't working because I'm not medically depressed, I'm just unhappy with my life. Yes, I un-diagnosed myself and stopped my medication with the help of my psychiatrist. I've not been on meds for over a year.
I took this little quiz today, which told me I have issues, but it all seems normal to me for someone under a lot of stress. Shouldn't I feel stressed and slightly depressed watching my autistic son struggle to make friends, and while I'm trying to graduate with honors, and my husband and I fight almost daily? No medication will change those things. It's up to me to manage these stressors more productively.

So here's my results...

Well then... on with the coping.
