"i have been suffering from depression and anxiety for the past few months after being ill from a virus. i have not taken any medication as i know the side effects can be horrific and can delay your recovery as you have other problems to deal with , but i am in the middle of CBT which has been great as it has made me understand more about myself and why i have these thoughts and on how to alter your thinking and to question your thoughts as this can affect your mood , also i have changed my diet , been more active and enjoyed being out in the sun more .\r\nbut what most people forget is that we have to also take charge of our own lives and focus on what is really important , the world is beautiful and life can be wonderful but sometimes it is about being kind to ourselves and never giving up, \r\nwe can be happy without being drugged up , we need the right support and self help to see that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.\r\nbut everything i have read all makes sense , but drug companies dont want you to think you can get better without drugs , its a big business, but also there is some illnesses that may need professional help, but for me , i feel i have proving that you can get better without drugs ."
