      I was in a MVA in 2006. I have chronic pain and depression from the pain. I have not been myself for a couple of yrs. I did'nt know I was depressed. My husband kept trying to get me to talk with my DR.s about it but I kept dening it. I was sleeping alot did'nt want to do anything all day. But things are starting to get better since they gave me cymbalta for my nerve damage. Who knew! I wish I had done something sooner. b/c it had effected my family life so much.
