Emily,
The greater proportion of dysthymics need ADs to keep their symptoms from returning. In one study 89% of the dysthymics experienced relapse when they discontinued their medication.
Please remember that it is up to you to feel positive about yourself, even if you have a 'disability' that requires medication.
