I have paid $5,000 out of my pocket this year so now it covers 100% but starts all over in Jan.
I have been on Projac for years, would be nuts without it. Depression runs in my family too.
I appreciate all of your thoughts and prayers.

Depression can get you hard. It also runs in my family. I was in a really wonderful place in my life last year when I realized I was depressed. I just couldn't believe it! I reminded myself that it's genetic and went to my doctor, who prescribed a second antidepressant or me (I was already taking one). When I last saw him, I asked him if he thought the two medications were still okay. He said that's the way it is supposed to be treated - with a combination when it's genetic.
Maybe you need the same kind of treatment I'm on. I have learned not to feel responsible for it or that I'm using a crutch. Life is way too short to be depressed if medication can help.
I love the article Diana posted. What a great way to look at it.
My prayers for the best outcome for you Donna.
