Hi Skye you'll find a lot of friendly people here on DWD always ready to listen.
I'm sure (though I may be wrong) that there are anti-depressants that don't affect the pressure in your eyes (glaucoma)
Sometimes working can help reduce depression it depends on the job and the people you are working with plus the companies' attitude tp mental health. There is no definitive answer as we are all different.
77 and counting, less of the "Old" call me "Mike"
I was supposed to get some antidepressants that didn’t affect eye pressure and I brought them home and looked on the paperwork with the tablets and it said in the side effects that they can cause pressure in the eyes, so I rang them back and said I couldn’t take them. I struggled for months and took, I think magnesium myself (possibly a placebo affect as I thought they helped) I was getting panic attacks as I’d witnessed my cat being hit and killed by a car. A year on and I have now gone into a bad depression. I still see the accident, but not as often and also it has a knock on effect of thinking about my deceased father who died at 50 and several other people who have died that I’ve been close to.
