Debbie the depression is so hard to overcome, isn't it?  I have just recently started on an antideppresant called Lexapro to try to help with my depression due to my RA.  I have found you someone in Portland that specializes in treating people with depression, chronic pain, and illness.  She comes with very high reviews.  Here you go!
