Hello Friend, Good that you are seeking a help here. Medicine are meant to provide you temporary relief or Suppress the symptoms. In the last 2 years it just helped you to control the depression and not removed it. You need to really work on the reason for you depressions and come out of this. You can't be having medicine for ever. Marriage and child is going to bring it's own joy and responsibility. Are you ready and prepared to take that?. Suggest you to first focus and get out of depression. Take a professional psychology counselling support to assess your current condition and identify the reasons for depression and explore the solutions. You may reach me if OK for online counseling. Else take a help of any local counselor.
