I'm kinda confused, is Momma the original poster, anon?
I went thru 10 yrs of clinical depression from 1991 to 2002, no crying but pretty bad and many docs as I believed it was thryoid issues and the docs and their obsession with numbers, said "no you are fine"....telling me I'm fine when I was NOT.,....
They just kept hitting me with cocktails of anti depressant drugs, which did NOTHING.....it was thyroid...
Had a great D.O. who worked on my back for years and he finally "got it", put me on Armour thyroid and in 4 days depression was gone....that was 18 yrs ago...never to return and I take thyroid support daily, pretty low dose now.
Thyroid is so missed and it's so IMPORTANT and WE ARE NOT NUMBERS... we are symptoms and there are some 66 symptoms of sluggish thyroid and Depression is right up there.....
At 82 I don't struggle with depression, chronic pain YES from OA, but I manage..
Wonder if the poster is still around as well.
