well i have never actually been diagnosed with anything. i dont know how to go about getting it started..i know ui have delt with depression all my life..if others are like me then you can tell when something is wrong with you. i do know that depression,bipolar and schizophrenia runs in the family. my mom and sister have both been diagnosed with all three.i do know i suffered from postpartum or whatever you might call it after my daughter passed away in 2005 but this goes back so much further than this...
