Thanks, definitely some things to consider. Do you know if Rhodiola has benefits for severe depression? All the info. I've found online mentions mild to moderate. After 13 months of this I would take mild depression in a heartbeat and would consider moderate, if there were no other options. The anhedonia and lack of energy are probably the most distressing symptoms. If I could enjoy anything I might not have the persistent low mood. Once upon a time I could alleviate low moods by playing guitar or writing or hanging out with friends. None of that works anymore, and actually feels foreign and, thus, assures that the mood stays low.
