I am so trying to understand this disease, however, I only keep getting more confused. He is so upset with me that I am only now-after 13 years- asking questions. He has two grown daughters and we...
OMG! my husband is 1/2 Irish and 1/2 Slovak......................guess i just need to shut up now. thanks to all of you!...
he's had it for as long as i have known him..13years. my problem is, is that he is always complaining about it so i never really know when he is in bad shape. seems like it is almost all the time. he...
1my biggest concern is that he doesn't seem to care. i feel he thinks he is living with this death sentence and then,so be it. he won't go to therapy because he doesn't want to take one more pill...
no, not really. eating late at night seems to be a concern for him due to acid reflux. i just can figure out why he eats what he eats...lots of fats, fast food,salsa, candy. just doesn't make sense...
my husband has uc and arthritis. he doesn't eat properly,that i can tell, and does no sort of exercise. it seems to me that he has already dug his own grave. what am i to do?...
Hey don't worry about your friends. I have found that some people like to suck the life out of you if they can. I only have 2 very close friends. However, I do keep very close to family. When I feel...
First off I want to say that I always look forward to the holidays with TOTAL anxiety. This was the time of year that my 'x' announced that we were through and so many other things. Alot of pressure...
I don't know what gender you all are, but I am female and I have the thought that I have a bladder infection quite often. Thanks for letting me know. I didn't realize that it was an anxiety thing. My...
holly, i just wanted to let you know that your message was heard. i hope that one of the monitors check with you soon. i myself don't look forward to death, but sleep is my consulate. I nap as often...
dear hopeful, I am on 40mg of Celexa. But different meds work differently for different people. You need to discuss your concern with your medical professional. Sometimes it takes a while to find the...
I too can't seen to cry as often as I would like too due to the antidepressant I am on. I remember every month during PMS I would either have a rageing fit throwing things including "F" bombs and or...
Hi, I've been on different levels of Celexa for the last 6years now. Just recently we (doc and I) up'd my dosage to 40mg. After being on 20mg for some time, I felt a sense that weight was lifted off...
OUTSTANDING! I have to laugh at myself everyday just to keep from crying......you made my day. Thanks...
depression sucks! thats the bottom line. i've been having a bad week and its only tuesday. for one thing, your list is tooooo looooong. start with only one or two items. clean that off your slate...
INFJ...which explains alot for me...
hey 'girl'. I think if you go to the top of this page and apply whatever disorder you are looking for into the search or site box, you may find some links. I have never be diagnosed with an eating...
As I was walking on my tredmill this morning my mind started to wander. The program on my rubberbanded 3x5 TV (i call my 'carrot') was losing my intrest. My eyes came upon the mileage/calorie...
Hey kids, i've been gone for a while. been getting my self better. I currently take 20mg. Have been weaning myself down. Last fall and early winter i had the blues real bad. i asked the doc to put me...

Thats ok els, just wanted to know if I could talk Trekkie to anyone. I don't live too far from Riverside, Iowa. The future birthplace of James T. Kirk. Almost named my son James....
/community/emoticons/cool.gif I didn't get a response from my Star Trek mention..... Anyone?!...
Wow you guys bring back memories. I had this when I was a kid. I remember being at camp and I felt like I had missed something or had blacked out for awhile (but not really-that was the only way I...
WELCOME..... I no longer feel alone since I have joined HW. I hope we can help you. Sometimes I can get alittle off subject, but it is all in fun. Even tho this is the depression site, we all have...
OK, so I'm like the opposite of most of you. Do you think when I go through menopause that I will be sad and you all will be invigorated? What hormone is it that I must have too much of or too little...
Thanks FamilyGuy...
Talking about the salt cravings,,,,,,Is anyone a Trekkie?! One TV series had an alien that posed as a woman but would change and become a SALT MONSTER. She would attack her prey and suck the salt out...
I am totally in agreement with all of you. Darn that PMS. It messes up a good month. HOWEVER, I don't get depressed, I get invigorated. Seriously! I can't wait until IT hits me. My house is the...
I had two different cats that would play fetch. so neat! a tin foil ball was the best. would fetch it and then drop it at my feet. these were both male cats only. is there some male sports gene that...
no one has mentioned horses. I had a Shetlan pony when I was on the farm. Dad showed me how to trim her hooves, but she kept biting so I never did. He let them grow to an awful length and finally got...
fishkillerguy, I have one feeder goldfish(19 cents) that is over 6 years old. He is over 6 inches long. He swims in a 10plus gallon octagonal tank. I have been trying to kill this guy for 3 years...
Is your name Dr. Dolittle /community/emoticons/tongue.gif ...
Looking back on my life, I was depressed at 13. Please get some counselling. Wish I had....
After my divorce and before I met my most wonderful husband, I used to drown my sorrows with my friend Jose Quervo. I DON'T ADVISE THAT :nono: The absolute best thing I did was take up the sport of...
Well, its official......in just 6 weeks I will be a Grandpuppyparent. Tucker will arrive! I can't wait to see him. Even tho I know my son is making a big mistake, I will love this Grandpuppy of mine....
My son just called and said in 6 weeks he and his girlfriend will be getting an AKC Golden Retriever. Free. I guess she knows someone who breeds them, and he always gives away the runt of the litter....
I had a greatUncle that had a small building that he bred Chinchillas. He would never let me pet them(they do bite),but mostly because of the fur that is so valuable. He taught me to just blow gently...
how funny, you changed the type of dog I had. It was a ShihTzu not crapzu...... I did call him that a few times tho....
my best friend for 14 years was my kitty Punky. Oh, if he could've talked. He knew more than anyone. He's been gone now for 9 years. The same time I had Rascal who was a AKC crapzu. He was supposed...
OK, we all know that pets can ease depression. Who has a pet? I have a 6 inch goldfish who smells and I can't pet for very long or he starts to gasp! /community/emoticons/yeah.gif I have always had...
Its a double bummer(70's jargon) for me because not only do I have genetic depression, I also have an ill husband. SOOOOOOOOOOO, when he is down, I can't be. Even if I really need to be down. OK you...
Hey Black Jack, Thanks for the post. I have never wished to harm any of the people who haunt me. Not physically at least. When I first found out that my husband wanted to divorce me, I did think...
/community/emoticons/smile.gif thanks...
thanks. its comforting to know that I am not alone with this. The 'what ifs' and 'should haves' will probably haunt us all for a long long time. I have thought about counselling for this. Have also...
How long does it take to get over a loss? I just realized that the problem of anxiety/depression I have is partially related to past losses. Such as family deaths, divorce, neighborhood conflicts and...
thanks for talking to me, James. I was beginning to consider cloning myself for a reply. What's got you so down. Sorry I haven't been following your posts....
ok, its still there. I'm beginning to get used to stepping over the stuff to get through the room. Why even set it up, when you can't put it away?! Why can't I let go. The holidays really sucked this...
Since no one has answered you, I will. I sometimes wonder if I didn't have a bit of OCD. Especially when I am deeply depressed. I am one that when I live alone, I have to make sure the pillows on the...
The Christmas stuff I mean is in piles in the basement. The tax stuff---who knows. Its in about 3 different places....
Just can't seem to get over this SAD stuff. Then a miserable cold comes along. Now I have to get Tax stuff organized. I have most of it in the basement, but it all is in piles. Who else has the post...
