I have a good friend who is a single parent with no contact or help from her son's father. She's really struggling with depression (and exhaustion if you ask me) and has got worse lately. I'm really worried about her. She has been to see her GP about anti-depressants, but says that they make her very nauseous (which she finds hard to cope with as she has a phobia about vomiting which gets worse when she is depressed - catch22) and stop her sleeping.
Can anyone help by recommending ADs without these side-effects or ways of minimising the side effects. She's a lovely person but struggling so hard at the moment bringing up her lively nearly-three year old on her own.
