Speaking from personal experience, most of my adult life was spent trying to reduce the impact of depression. Nothing seemed to work, but when I was diagnosed with ADD several years ago, that changed everything. We were working from the wrong direction!
Of course, adult ADD was unheard of when I started trying to control my depression (early 80’s). My depression is still with me, but not as severe and knowing exactly what the root cause is makes it easier to deal with.
Hope this helps…and good luck.
