Hi Aurora, I remember you from last year giving me words of encouragement during my hard time. I hope you are doing better today and I will keep you in my prayers....
Bob my heart hurts for you, and I hope you can see a light at the end of your tunnel. I KNOW you will be with your wife and daughter again. Some people die alone without a love as great as you and...
Ok. I'm done with the snooping. I nearly cut my own throat earlier with this stuff. Its over. I'm done. I'm done with the lying to cover my snooping etc. Pray for me guys, please....
Hi Karen, My wife has been on & off with the fitness thing for 2 years. It is sticking this time because of her friends that work out with her, and she likes the results she's getting. I just can't...
Good morning, Karen, hope your day will be great and that others benefit from your wisdom! This will be a long one... As I think I mentioned before the really bad stuff started happening when my wife...
Wow, posting does help. Haven't gone to the doctor yet, but will as soon as time permits. I'm trying to resist the temptations to do my snooping for proof of something that may not be there. I've...
Thank you so much, Karen. You were there for me last April when I first got on here, and I feel very grateful. I texted my wife "I love you" earlier. Her response was, "I'm trusting you and I'll try....
I messed up bad with my wife. I woke up this morning and couldn't sleep. We then started talking and things got super heated. She blew up as I took her to work and said it was too late for me to try...
I'm calling to schedule an appointment with the dr. ASAP. I need something to calm me down. The 20 mg of paxil isn't cutting it right now. I need something to bring this tension and nervousness down....
He is scared and insecure about you. He must care for you or else he would be gone. It can be hard to forgive emotional infidelity. Lay it on the line and ask him where your marriage is going. Ask if...
Thanks Karen, I get so worked up when I'm alone and it carries over to the house. I'm gonna hear about this guy my wife says, because he is "part of her day, and funny things happen to her and her...
Long story shorter, I became complacent with my marriage and Paxil didn't help. It killed my libido and my wife paid for that. I'm trying now to pick up the pieces of what my life has become. 2...
Hello gustafer, I'm sorry that you are having a rough time right now. I can understand why this girl is important to you, because she was there for you during tough times. People many times forge...
UC since '76, that is a true statement. Unfortunately, we as humans are prone to different weaknesses. Some people lie, eat too much, and become addicted to various behaviors. The important thing is...
Hey Confused, glad to hear you don't have dysplasia:) Its also good to hear you are getting help weekly. Trust me on this, your psych is right on when it comes to isaac. also, the many people that...
I'm currently on 40 mg of Paxil and have been doing alright. I have increased my caffiene intake because I like sodas:( I have averaged about 6 hours of sleep at night this week and have been...
Kesse, it is not silly at all. Our emotions are what they are and are real. Being in a new place with different people is a challenging experience, but you took it on and accomplished goals. Helping...
When your at the lowest point in a depressed period, work can be awful. For me, being alone most of the time was really bad. I can see how being surrounded by different people could aggravate the...
hey confused girl, just checking in to see how everything is going. hope all is better for you today. I know it takes time, but you'll feel good soon....
Confused, I really feel for you but when a guy says horrible things like that, he does not care about you. You may have come on strong and that probably scared him away. However, it is not your fault...
I now know the saying, "more money, more problems" is true. You have been through quite a ride so far. You can't quit now, so don't even think about it. I wish you all the best from here on out. God...
Kitt, you hit the nail on the head with this post. It is difficult to live with a depressed spouse but we deserve love too, regardless of our emotional state at times. It takes someone special (my...
Miss Yellow, please do not take your S/O's lack of labido personally. When I was at my lowest it was a chore just to stay alive, much less have sex. I'm so grateful my wife is understanding, and that...
Hey Bear, glad to hear you are doing better. Like Raniah said above, you don't have to apologize or point out your age when it comes to depression. I've had bouts with depression since I was 8, and...
Sorry about how you've been feeling, I hope you feel good very soon. Definitely see a doctor to rule out anything that may cause these feelings. I know this difficult time WILL pass you by, and you...
Good to hear that you and your son are doing better. life can bring us down, but if we battle to bring ourselves up we can do it. May you, me, and everyone on this site always strive to be uplifted....
I too feel that way in the morning. it is like an overwhelming dread that engulfs me for most of the day. Then I feel better as the day progresses. You are not alone. God bless you in this hard time....
man, sorry for your bad luck with meds. I'm on 40 mg of paxil and it does o.k. for me. other than the itching, how do you feel? maybe it will go away after a while. check with your doctor. keep...
cowboy, I wondered about the same thing regarding serotonin levels during levels of stress. since the past 2 months have been horrible for me, I was wondering if my brain needs time to balance it all...
as long as you and your son have eachother, you will be o.k. you are alive and so is he. he seems to be taking this in stride and I know he would want you to cheer up. my mother and I are very close...
that line is NOW. get help and see a doctor or therapist. the longer anybody delays getting the help, you are delaying comfort. I see a counselor on Friday. I've talked to clergy, mother, father,...
you are father of the year, man. you have stepped up regardless of your own issues and are taking care of business. please get help from a counselor for you and your wife. always keep the kids first....
hi cherry sunday, I can understand your problem to a degree. it's hard when you don't have the support for yourself that you need. you need to settle the problems within your relationship to feel...
that is some very good advice that kitt and karen have given you. just let your bf know that you'll always be there, and talk to someone for yourself. you are the constant in his life and need to be...
it sometimes makes me feel guilty what my wife has to endure with my depression. I can be a living zombie at times, and it makes it hard to have a healthy relationship. I shut down and my family...
I can see your love is feirce for your son. you are just like my mom who suffers right along with me. I hope that your son's employers are aware of his condition and can give him some leniency. God...
that is very wise, as the previous person stated about not looking up the side effects. the mind can fool us into believing what we read on those bottles. I hope that this is the med that can help...
Sorry for your whole situation. I can't say I know what you've been through, but I'll keep you in my prayers. start by getting some counseling and seeing a doctor. get some sunshine, and post on...
Help! For 2 months now I have been severely depressed. It gets worse when I'm alone, and I practically work by myself 98% of the time. I can't wait to get home and just feel dead inside most of the...
I said a quick prayer after reading this for you, your mother, and your family. I know God loves you and that in him we can be strong. you are strong for enduring depression for years, so you are...
I too am sorry for your troubles. the good thing is you are young and it is NEVER too late to make things better. stay in school because if you drop out, you WILL regret it. there are programs at...
wow, you are a fighter. you've made it this far and that is great. please see a doctor who can treat and diagnose you properly. talk to people who care and stay safe. I wish you nothing but the best....
I sometimes feel the exact same way, except I'm married (for 8 years) with a 5 yo daughter. Be grateful that kids are not in the equation right now for you. See a doctor who can definitely help you...
please see a doctor to get the right meds, and stop taking stuff that is not prescribed to you. also, take the medication directly as prescribed. that should be a good start, as well as seeing a...
I've gone through a hellish month. I've been on Paxil for generalized anxiety/depression for 9 years (I'm 25 now), and have gone through bouts of the "blues" before. Nothing like this ever, though. I...
