Most of the people on this depression site take medication.  You will find we are all on different anti-depressants.  Have a read of some of the comments.  You are not alone here, as everyone knows what it is like to have depression.  Keep in touch, and you will find friends and understanding people here.

Hope you find it helps to write here.

Hello there, are you saying that taking pain killers frequently has given you depression?  If you are worried about addiction, you will find there is an addiction site here also.
