Don't let the term "low-grade" let you think that PDD/Dysthymia is easy to deal with. While major depressive disorder makes virtually impossible to get out of bed, PDD makes you struggle to get out of bed. It's still very serious and can impact your life. In fact, the major problem with it is that many people with PDD accept that the depressive symptoms are part of their personality, which makes recovery much harder because you don't know what's you and what's the mental illness

The problem is that there are many who confuse depression with being sad, frustrated and/or mad... I have been suffering for depression for so long now... Depression is like a numbness on your feelings, when you're happy is like you are not there, and you when are sad is like that's the real you, is like there is nothing that makes you feel more alive than feeling pain, is like the love is not there, you can only feel whole when you feel empty, you forget how to feel good, and the more you go deep into the abyss of sorrow and death is when you start feeling more alive, I have been trying to find my way out of this, but I cannot, I have been thinking to kill my self too, but I am weak... I tried pills, tried everything but I feel like I am a loosen piece on this world... I know far too well the pain of being born into this world... thank you if you stopped to learn about me...

I was diagnosed with dysthymia at 38. My therapist thinks I've basically always had it. I know when it is getting worse when I quit laughing out loud, am easier to anger, and just disinterested in most things. It is almost like having a wet blanket on top of my emotions. I know it is hitting major depression when I struggle to shower, completely disinterested in cooking and feel like crying for no reason.

I have PDD and ptsd. Reading this comments I can definitely see myself in them. Itās hard to live with this every day. Life often feels meaning less. Iām always thinking of the darkness in humans and the fate of the world and just all of those things. I try to continue to find meaning in small things. I also think about how the universe aligns things for my benefit. The algorithm recommended this video at the right time and moment and Iām thankful for that and it gives me hope. My husband continues to take care of me even with my MH disorders. All these things mean something to me. I wish you all well

I was OFFICIALLY diagnosed with dysthymia when I was around 22 years old, although I struggled with it at a younger age. I'm 49 now and still struggle, even with different antidepressants and numerous (unproductive) counseling sessions through the years. From November to February, I also deal with Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). In 2015, I battled with PDD, a major depressive episode, SAD, and anxiety attacks ALL at the same time!
Depression really sucks.

I agree about going to get second opinion. I am medical doctor myself, I went through therapists to work on my mental health issues because of my childhood traumatic experience. And I would say this to you, if you feel less connected with your therapist, find another therapist. If you feel that the therapist might be wrong wheb dealing with your issue, find someone else. You don't want to waste your time, effort and money, just trying to fit yourself with the diagnosis they made.
