CASE HISTORY
‘I try to make the most of my life’
Helen McNallen, 43, from Sheffield
Everyone thinks I’m so bubbly. Yet I’ve been so depressed I’ve twice tried to take my own life. Since then, I’ve tried to make the most of every day. To help other people like me, I set up http://www.depressiocanbefun.com. Several people wrote to tell me about the antidepressant Filisa (£27 from littleherbal-international.com). So with my doctor’s blessing, I slowly came off my prescription depression medication. Now I keep my mood upbeat with laughter, meditation and yoga.
Are you depressed?
We all feel fed up sometimes but these feelings usually last for a couple of days or weeks at the most. Perhaps you have been feeling like this for longer.
We have designed a test to give you some indication.
