Hi Ashley,
Welcome to the site. Moving to a new place can be very difficult. You may want to try and see if you can find a local support group in your area. (You could find these in the phone book or possibly via the internet). They may be able to recommend a doctor for you. You also may want to try contacting one of your previous medical professionals from where you used to live. They may have access to resources in your area or at least be able to provide you with some infomation as to how to go about finding someone in your area. Pharmacists are also a great resource that know about area doctors and clinics.
Please feel free to roam the site at your own pace. If you look to the left of the screen under "TOOLS" you will find our Depression Test. This test is not a diagnostic tool and is not a replacement or substitute for a physician's advice. The purpose of these tests is to prepare you with information that you can present to your physician. When you're finished the test, you can either print your Final Report or email it directly to your doctor.
If you have any question or concerns with our site or please contact Support Department at support@depressioncenter.net. We are open to any questions or concerns you may have.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon!
Casey

Hi,
My name is ashley. I have been diagnosed with depression since I was in 6th grade. I was about 12 I think. I am 27 now. I have been in and out of the mental hospital for suicide 7 times...my last visit was for over three months.
The reason why I am here is because I need to find a doctor. I am not doing very well. See in the past my Dad always took care of finding a doctor for me, and basically took care of everything..but my fiance and I moved far away and he cant really do that for me living so far away as he does now. I have seen a tun of therapists and shrinks in my life...I actually dropped out of public school and went to a school for kids with depression and suicidal tendences..when I was in high school.
I just want to find a decent doctor...someone who can precribe medication and maybe some counseling...someone whos up for a challenge..
I have tried everything(except shock therapy, which if it works I will do it)..I just feel like as time goes by I slip further and further into depression and I just dont like where things are going..to be honest I am scared I am going to loose control... I am honestly reaching the point where I dont care about anything anymore...in fact its been like this for probably 6 months now. I am bipolar...but I have seen so many doctors..I have dozens of different diagnosis.
I dont work...in fact I have never really had a job for more than three months. I dont like leaving my apartment...
Even laundry and cooking, cleaning...simple stuff is next to impossable for me...my fiance does everything...and I am really clingy when it comes to him..I am always wanting him to spend time with me, anything to get my mind off everything else.
anyway I just want to find a decent doctor in the north texas area and I dont know where to start or even how to choose..
thanks,
ashley
