[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 211593, member: 1550"] I have had such bad depression I've been hosptialized, at one time, back when insurance was still good, for TEN weeks. The pain I felt was like a broken leg that wouldn't heal and couldn't be treated. I rememeber explaining it that way to my doctor. The mental pain was beyond any treatable pain I'd ever experienced. I had headaches, stomachaches, and aches and pains too. I didn't sleep so I was also achey from lack of sleep. But nothing matched the mental agony. And for me depression would last a year at a time until I found this medication combination that, strangely, is not considered the best but works for me. Sadly, I am so immobilized when depressed that I can barely get out of bed let alone force myself to exercise, but they made me do it in the hospital anyway and I was still depressed. I truly believe that depression is a physical disorder. You are not alone. Trust me. You are far from alone. I'm so glad you're feeling better now. [/QUOTE]
