dysthymia and MDD

Posted by b2chica on May 30, 2012, at 14:15:18

can a person have both.
i'm wondering if what i have going on right now is more dysthymia rather than MDD not being helped by meds.
its low lying,
i dont have desire to do anything
i dont get enjoyment from anything
i cant seem to get my head above water
i have bouts (like today) where i get extremely nervous and scared if i have a dark (suicidal) thought.
i can still act fine in front of people at work, as long as its not for extended period of time. but then i go back to office and close door and feel like i could sleep for a day.

what do you all think? dysthymia?
how does one work past that?

The day is on Fire, and i know the purity of pure despair."
