Hi all,

I'm looking for some advice on bettering yourself when you suffer from depression.

I've had depression all my life that runs in the family but was also triggered by my dad's abuse.

I am working hard in school but can't help but occasionally fall behind. I'm also at a decent weight right now, but have trouble staying in shape. I've gained about 10 pounds this year, and while I look pretty much the same, I can tell it makes my face look less defined.

I've tried anti depressants but most don't work. The one that did made it impossible for me to orgasm.

Also, although I work to he a Queen, I do end up relying on my partner a lot. He's supportive of me which is why I think he's a HVM, but I also want to be able to rely on myself a bit more. I just feel like doing the bare minimum (my school work, my job, 10-30 min exercise) is all I can do on the daily, but I want to do more.
