I have been living with depression for .....[share how long]
From 6-7 years old, major depression in the last 8 years, shutting down everything...everything...
I honestly think ive been suffering my whole life, but i was officially diagnosed at 9 years old... so about 8 years
I was Diagnosed with mild depression at the age of 7. At 10 I was diagnosed with clinical depression, anxiety, and mild PTSD. So I have been living with depression for almost 8 years now.
20 years
6 years and some months, it's kinda fading away these weeks.
I have been living with depression and anxiety disorders for 22 years and am currently driving into a deeper depression and am having a hard time see the light at the end of the tunnel. I'm just so tired of the ups and downs and always waiting for that shoe to drop....because it ALWAYS DOES and usually when I let my guard down.
@mamaof3 hang on ! :) it'll get better
About 11 years in which i have been aware of my depression... probably more in which i was unaware i was suffering with it.
I was just diagnosed about a month ago but hindsight is 20/20 and I realize I've been dealing with it for at least 5 years.
I was diagnosed 5 years ago, but I know for sure I've had at least a mild form of it ever since I was 7. It just got worse later. It's exhausting
I have been living with depression for last 6 years but suffering from anxiety disorder since childhood.
