Well, the police might take you to the emergency room following an incident and you got put on an involuntary psychiatric hold, and were diagnosed on the locked ward. You wouldn't see your doctor that way, but its an extreme way to get diagnosed.

I'd recommend seeing your doctor.

How can you pull out of depression?

Sometimes you can't just pull yourself out of depression. It's not just a mood; it's an actual mental disorder. Go to a doctor and ask for help.

Depression medication effect menstrul cycle?

When I was diagnosed with depression I had to take around eight pills per day, including Prozac and Xanax. I was never alerted to menstrual cycle disturbances by any doctor and I never experienced one for the three years I was under medication. Instead, the high levels of anxiety and nervousness can cause that disturbance. In any doubt, and if it persists, I recommend you see your doctor. It can be something not related to depression at all.
