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!
