A benzodiazepine is the last thing a depressed person needs,believe me.You definately need to seek professional medical help.Many people suffer from depression and there are so many different drugs for depression it would make your head spin.You need to make sure your doctor understands that you are suffering terriblly and you need action now!!!How is your diet???Are you getting any exercise.Eating properly and even going for a couple of walks a day will help stimulate endorphin production.Endorphins make us feel good so try and get some lite exercise and eat a high protein diet.Good luck and don't let up until you have some success......Dave:)
