I've been diagnosised with depression and lately it's been pretty bad, i can't sleep at night, i'm crying a lot, not sure what to do, already on meds?

Depression: I am sorry to hear you are having a tough time. Depression is very common and many patients need help treating it. Therapy or counseling is a great place to start and medications can be used as an adjunct. If medications are not helping then sometimes a different type or dose will do the trick. Exercise and a support system of friends and family also go a long way :)

Therapy?: Have you yet tried any form of psychotherapy? Typically, the optimal combination of things to treat emotional issues such as depression is medication (which, on your best day, is supposed to take the edge off symptoms) but the real gruntwork takes place in psychotherapist's consulting room.

Depressed with meds: If you are currently on medication for depression but they do not seem to be working, contact your prescribing physician. In addition, you should seek the help of a psychologist trained in cognitive therapy for depression. Contact your local psychological Association as well as the Association for the Advancement of Cognitive Behavior Therapy.
