wrosswells	If you are depressed you should see a MD asap. So many people miss out on life because they are afraid of a stigma being attached to depression or any mental health issue. Don't be afraid sometimes the tiniest amount of medication can open up your entire world. It's not about narcotics, it's about meds that stimulate your natural brain chemistry. It can change your life for the better. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

flawlessgirl	Try looking at Web MD, for that, that site is very informative and will give you different options. But there is alot of different prescription medications out, that wont conter-react to your birth control, just talk to your doctor. Zoloft is really mild, with no side effects, and you will feel so better. But if you are insisting on doing it the natural way, try doing Yoga, or any kind of exercise, to relax your mind, as well as reading the bible. Remember God can take anything we go through away!

In Truth there is Love	You got lots of good advise. I would also consider Bach Flower Remedies. Bach flower remedies are a unique form of energy medicine that has become increasingly popular among alternative health care professionals; they are classified as homeopathic remedies in the United States and are part of the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States (HPUS). Discovered by the English physician Edward Bach during the 1930s, the 38 flower tinctures are believed to heal emotional imbalances such as despondency, despair, and fear. Having been challenged by those patients whose chronic depressive symptoms were refractory to psychotherapy and/or medications, a colleague of mine began integrating Bach flower therapy into his psychotherapy practice about 3 years ago and has witnessed remarkable results. You could look on this side http://www.virtuosity.net.au/bach-anxiety.htm to find some fitting remedies for yourself or go to a natural health care provider who uses them, to choose the remedies for you. Bach Flower Remedies will not have any effect on birth control pills. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
