Wishingstar,

It isn't really a secret, it is a FEAR. You are afraid you caused the depression. You didn't. And if your body reacted badly to a drug, well that is a biological problem. It isn't like you wished the depression on yourself. Or started taking something that wasn't prescribed for you.

Your doctors knew you were on birth control, you stopped it, and it didn't help. Maybe you aren't afraid you caused it (which would mean you WERE in control), maybe you are afraid you have no control at all? It is scary to feel you have no control over something.

I think the truth probably is somewhere in between. You have a biological problem that you can't control except by taking meds, eating right, getting enough sleep, and doing everything else you can to take good care of yourself.

Let yourself off the hook!
