hi, im new to this group and i look forward to chatting with all of you. i have had depression all my life and have pretty much refused to treat it. after giving birth i started lexapro for ppd but am finding that my problems are still there i just dont cry about them as much anymore. i guess im looking for ways to cope and a hope to come off my meds sometime soon. from reading some of the topics on here it looks as though this is a very friendly tight nit community and i hope i can find help here.
