How Can Depression And PTSD Be Treated?

Yes, Its awful, I am 71 yr. old widow, with 3 grown daughters. I lost most of my hearing when I was 5, from Mump complications. Now old age has made it worse. It has profoundly changed my personality, and my middle age children don t get it. They don t like to be around me. So I am alone and depressed. I see a therapist. I take meds for depression. It turned into PTSD. Mary
