Sounds scary! Have you tried seeing a Psychologist?

Hi Steve
It’s good that you’ve gone on this site and have sought out some help. Definitely go to your GP and see a psychologist. I know many people do not want to be on medication but the medication definitely does help immediately. You’re probably suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome from your drug encounter. I understand. I have good family and friends but feel they don’t understand because they have never had depression before and then I isolate myself and don’t want to socialise.
