Hi Ben welcome to DWD :)
I've been on and off the meds for years now. My latest precription I got on Thursday. I've not seen my GP in ages and don't fancy doing so with everything that's going on.
Thanks for the welcome, Mike.
Sometimes it takes a while and a few different meds to find something and a dosage that works for you. There are 20+ meds licensed to treat depression. Personally, I found the 9th one I tried at the max dose has enabled me to have a fulfilling life, but not everyone is as awkward as me ;)
Keep going, you'll get there in the end
If you didn't see your Dr, did you have a phone consultation? As Jaq says unfortunately not all meds work on people in the same way - that's why it can be a bit of a trial finding the right one for you at the right dose...
