[quote=Anonymous]This sounds more like dysthymia and research shows meds are not always overly effective for persistant mild depression. Are you exercising regularly? Regular exercise can have a similar effect on neurotransmitters and be as effective for mild depression as medication. Definitely worth a conversation with your PCP to see what they think might be most useful for you. Antidepressants only help to manage symptoms and they don't work for everyone - going to therapy to also discuss what potential psychosocial factors or cognitive emotional factors might also be contributing can also be helpful.[/quote]
