So I've been dealing with clinical depression for 7 years, diagnosed and everything, nothing has really helped me or had a long lasting effect one me or my mood, therapist, anti-depressants you name it.
Overall I just feel beaten now, I feel as if I'm only living to make the people around me happy, rather than genuinely wanting to live everyday.
This probably isn't the place to post this but I wanted to know if anyone here has dealt with long lasting depression and if this something I'm going to have to come to terms with or if there's just something I haven't done in these 7 years.
6 years and in the same position as you. Shit fucking sucks.

3 years for me. Feel as if I'm nearing your situation already.
15 years reporting in. I've had 4 major episodes so far. I've just accepted it and am just living out of seer stubbornness.
I was depressed from as early as I can remember until I was 18 and moved away from my parents. Have you just kept living the same life hoping something would magically change? You're probably with toxic people or in a toxic situation.
