Susie,

Welcome to the boards. What you are feeling is perfectly normal given the circumstances you are dealing with. It takes time to come out of a depression, and like Madeline said it does take a few weeks for the meds to work.

Try to spend some time everyday sitting outdoors in the sun. Sunlight can be helpful with depression. Are you able to be very functional right now?

Try to do something good for yourself every day. Take care of yourself and nurture yourself. You are a person worth loving. You deserve to be happy. This will pass, and life will seem worth living again.
