I feel so depressed and down so I went to my doc and he got me in cipralex 10 mg it's my second day.mornings are bad. I feel Like I'm gonna die.

I think this site I very suprtice and I feel good by reading it. All the best falls in 2013.

Hi Litllestar and welcome.

I can first of all say that you emerged the winner from that past relationship. Your ex is a very small, weak man that he needs to be abusive and then attempt to make himself look better by continuing to bother you presently! Seriously...good riddance, and don't give him another thought!

I am sorry to hear that this has stirred up old issues for you, but glad that you have looked into getting the help that you need! I hope that the medication starts to help you really soon, and that you can the start to move forward again!:)

Have you also considered therapy, or revisiting that idea for a 'booster'? I highly recommend it to help you get through the new thoughts and feelings that have resulted from this experience, and the set the stage for a healthy future in your relationships...and dealing with the anxiety and depression...and life in general.:)

There are also some great self-help books out there. We have some listed in our Resources (main page, 1st post) or I could help you with some suggestions...let me know.

Please continue to post with us as well. We understand, and are here to listen and support!
