Lee: The frustrating thing is not getting any help from the docs re the hormone/depression issue. I could hardly get them to even discuss it. I think its a terribly neglected area, research-wise and we are on our own for the most part. My depression worsened so badly at the onset of menopause that i was at my pdoc's in tears begging him to hospitalize me. My ob/gyn's response was HRT, which helped other symptoms, but did nothing for depression and may even have made it worse. Good luck to you in finding some relief, and hang in there. Mel
