Thanks for all your support, i never realized that there are a lot of people that have this disorder i mean i know i am not alone and i am trying very hard to do my breathing exercises and remembering that they are only just memories but they are distressing to me sometimes i just cry and cry. I feel a bit better afterwards but i want to sleep most of the day as it seems that when i do that then the memories don;t invade me. Anyway the 23rd is approaching and i see me new pysch doc and i a holding on till then. I keep popping my meds like i'm suppose to but i can;t seem to figure out why they still keep coming back thanks again and i will let u know how things are going Twiggy2.

Hi Twiggy, you're doing a great job for what you have to deal with. Remember, 1-day-at-a-time. Take care.

thanks sometimes i wish there was a magic pill that would make them go away maybe there is and the new doc can help find out which one. Twiggy2.

I know what you mean Twiggy.  I have to find a new pdoc but I don't have the energy to do it.  I'm one day at time now - getting through the depression.  Hang in there.

cyber hugs and prayers to you...

Question in the bi polar forum they are saying that bp people cannot or should not be on SSRI"S im on both and many people usually are correct like Zoloft and lithium or what ever right what is your opinion and what meds do u take if you don;t mind me asking i forget thanks Twiggy2.

Twiggy, I was taken off of SSRI's b/c I take Immitrex for migraine.  I take it frequently and this can cause "Serotonin Syndrome."  I take 300mg. of Wellbutrin and klonopin as needed.  I am in DEEP Depression.  Have you ever been to the hospital?  I live alone, have nobody to really help me out.  I can barely function.  I started a temp job last week but my body (pains) and my head isn't holding up.  I cry at lunch and then I lose it as soon as I get in the car.  I think about ending it all the time now and I just don't know what to do anymore.  I have a little doggie and I don't want to leave him.  He is worth living for but I honestly don't know what's going to happen to me.  I thought I could do this on my own, I really did but ever since they took me off of the SSRI's I have been in deep depression.  Not just the blues.  I don't feel hopeful b/c my mind and my body are not cooperating.  Have you ever had to go to the in-patient mental hospital?  I wish somebody would tell me what to expect.  I'm afraid to go.

Hopeful are you in any kind of counceling in addition to meds? Sometimes that can help atleast take the edge off.
