No don't say that. You are NOT a 'chronically inadequate character' polluting the human gene pool.

I say this because if meds had never worked for me in the past I would have thought the same thing about myself. But I do know that when they work they can make you feel so much better and you realise that you weren't imagining just how bad you felt. It's like you only know just how bad you felt and the suffering you had to endure when you experience the total relief of it.

The drugs you are taking are not helping you by the sounds of it but that doesn't make this YOUR fault. Keep trying other things until you get total relief and don't ever blame yourself for this.

My Doctor tried to imply I had a personality disorder when I told him the drugs weren't working the second time around, like before I had depression which is why they worked and now all of a sudden I have a Personality disorder. Doesn't quite add up somehow.

Read Martha Manning's book "undercurrents" one thing she says is that people seem to insinuate that if only you did this or that or thought this or that then you would get better, like it's somehow in your control. She was a psychotherapist, once a hard working loving, caring professional and even she fell fowl of depression. I'm sure nobody ever accused her of the things you are accusing yourself of. You are not any of those things you just feel that you are because you are suffering.
