Hi pretty_paints!
>I think my pdoc said that a depression takes about 8 months to work its way out of your system if left to it's natural course.
I also heard a pdoc mentioned that 'you will ultimately get better, what we can do is shorten the time'. This made me wonder if it's actually true. My illnesses are with highest certainty bio-chemical/genetical induced. Many relatives suffer from the same as I. And i'm also one of those who probably need to take meds for the rest of my life, if not a miracle med appear on the market in the future that actually 'cure' the brain.
As hard it is to understand why the brain 'choose' to sink down into a depressive state, as hard is it to understand why it would come back up./Mattias
