depression bad

Lately I've had depression bad. I've also been careless with my sexual health and ended up having a bit of risky sex with someone I hardly knew. Now I have symptoms and its making me suicidal. The doctor wants me to take meds but I hate the zombie feeling I get from them.

From what you say you have been on anti depressants in the past.  You say they gave you a zombie feeling.  I think that is because you were not on one that suited you.  I was on an anti depressant for years, in fact I have been on many, but I have not felt like a zombie.  Perhaps your doctor could prescribe a different one, that suits you better.

I hope that the response in the other forum helped you a little.  It is unlikely you have an STD so it may just be a medical problem.  Don't worry about it for now, just get it checked out.
