How do i deal with my depression until i am able to see my doctor in about a month?

It depends: If you are waiting to see your general doctor to deal with the depression, ask to get in sooner or see a psychiatrist. If you are suffering from debilitating, severe depression, you can't wait a month to see your doctor: you need to get in as soon as possible. If you are seriously thinking about suicide, page your doctor, go to the er and/or call 911. Call us1-800-273-talk (8255).
