Truth be known like most illness ---example like cancer-- many theroies --no real known cause,wether partially genetic or enviromental or behavioral ---nobody knows for sure and there is no one size fits all cure either. I think of depression much the same ---its definitley not hopeless disease-- its finding the right meds that work to help control it and working with good pdoc ---but no matter what like any illness --the minute we accept it --then we start the journey to recovery....no matter how long we have symptoms. There wouldnt have forums like this if there were easy asnwers to diseases--were all searching to get better and improve .Its about us trying to be are own advocate by educating ourselves and getting support and it comes from seeking knowledge. I think your on the right path by just coming to this site. If you decide to stay Matt I think you will find many in your shoes and alot of support coming your way....they have many in the medical field on this sight and many patients ...and some just will be here just for emotional support.
