If you had a prescription for depression, the physician will simply try and access your general physical health.
I was just recently prescribed these two medications by a physician for severe back pain. I don't know anything about long term usage but I took this combination for about 2 weeks.. Always consult a physician before using any prescription medication!
Citalopram (brand name = Celexa) is a SSRI antidepressant medication. and is also used to prevent anxiety symptoms, in those individuals having anxiety disorders.
Bupropion (aka - wellbutrin) is generally prescribed to treat depression, bipolar disease, and attention deficit disorder. It was recently approved by the FDA to assist in the cessation of smoking. Though one of its side-effects is drowsiness, this medication is not prescribed for insomnia. Another side-effect, due to bupropion's upward effect on norepinephrine (noradrenaline), can be wakefulness. The actual effect varies between individuals.
how would you check that an individual has not taken any medication recently
I liked an answer I just recently read: Depression is just anger without enthusiasm.

My questions, did you take the medication as prescribed? Did you have a chest X-ray done? It could be that you did not follow the right procedure . Such as: antibiotic medication can be prescribed for 3,5,7,10 days or indefinite or without a proper chest X-ray ou can't really know what's going on, and you can't R/A certain disesases like PNA, or better yet you might have to use another antibiotic.

A depression test is a screener that can help diagnose whether someone is depressed. Usually it takes the form of a questionnaire in which the patient rates how he has felt recently.

I've been wondering the same thing since I recently lost weight and have been experiencing depression. Can't find and info on this.
It can be hard to separate them, because ADHD or ADD can cause depression but depression can also cause concentration problems. If you want to fix your problems you have to find out which one is the underlying cause. For instance, if something has recently happened in your life (death, trauma etc) it might be depression.
