    Chronic depression is defined as persisting for 2 years or more.

    I had been diagnosed with major depressive disorder, and it persisted for more than 2 years.

    Currently, over a decade later, almost 2… I am doing better.

    The things I here outlined were helpful to me in getting to that point.

    Ibuprofen is, yes, bad in excessive quantities, but it is also bad taking a ‘safe’ dose consistently for a very long period of time… and I did suggest an alternative, though it may not be easily accesible in all areas.

    Your pain management is ultimately up to you of course, I obviously do not know the specifics of the situations of anyone here.
