Hi Susan,

I am taking meds now for dysthymia, but I did CBT and talk therapy before to fight a major episode of depression.

I am like you: I don't feel like telling my life story to someone else again (although I am somewhat doing it here too! But change makes me feel good sometimes). So I am taking meds now because I feel I made all the efforts I could for mow. I may go back to therapy at some point if I feel like it and think it could help further. At this point I prefer to let the meds do the work because I am tired of making efforts, and they don't seem to work on my dysthymia, even though they worked on the major depression.

I am stubborn in many ways, one of which is not to give up on being mentally healthy and doing everything I can to get there. If different approaches are useful for me, I will use them all!
