This is the MOST important thing to remember

...It is not a problem that is easily solved. My depression has worked into a schitzo-affective disorder and needs schitzophrenic medicine to treat it now...

It didn't come into being overnight, and it isn't solved overnight.

My situation improved, and I changed who I was and how I was, but it took YEARS and YEARS.... almost 23, to be exact. So be patient with yourself, and ignore all these people who think you can snap your fingers and suddenly be ok. It just does NOT work like that. It's a slow, steady and ongoing process that takes lots and lots of time.

I know that

which is why I ignored their advice. They don't know enough about me to properly diagnose my condition or plan a solution. Nor do they know the nature of my illness or how to treat it.

People who think that a depressed person can just snap out of it, deserve to either go to hell or end up with a depression of their own that they cannot snap out of.

A lot of the way I think and feel comes from the illness. The illness creates negative thoughts, and it is like having bad recordings being played in my head over and over again and I don't have access to an off switch.
