The best way to evaluate your depression is through questioning your daily activities and feelings. Blood levels can tell you if you are at theraputic levels of your med but not tell you if you are on the right med for you. Try going to one of these sites and taking the questionaire honestly about once a week or every other week. Keep track of your scores and you will see if the symptoms of depression are decreasing or remaining the same. From my own experience you will see a significant change in your score when you find the "right" med. They are worth a try.
