How do you overcome depression caused by the death of a loved-one?

By Eva|zyban depression

I lost my mom suddenly and unexpectedly just over a year ago and I was down in such a bad way for six or more months, that I started seeing a therapist, and she referred me to a psychiatrist. I now lug Celexa which has helped me start moving on. Also, thank goodness I someone great friends who came over and decorated out with me, cheered ME up and made me eat once I did not want to.
