Last year, I had a major depressive episode. I went to counseling, took my meds, and basically healed myself. My husband was never supportive in my therapy, never thought I needed meds and basically...
I've been there, done that. I've been the rock when needed, and stepped away when told I wasn't wanted or needed. It's a choice you need to make for yourself, and more importantly for your child. Can...
Don't you ever feel like sometimes your an addict? Isn't a ceratonin uptake just a legal form of ecstacy? I truly think I would be fine not taking my meds now that I've removed my "stressors".. in...
Thank you Jim! What a great idea! I never had any problem writing the "I'm not happy letter, we need to change something" in the beginning of our relationship. I got my point across then, but never...

My doc put me on Welbutrin the beginning of the week, and it seems to be helping already. I was already on lexapro, and maybe it was helping a little, but I was tired and had no motivation. Now that...
Just got a call from my case manager that my benefits were extended another month! Guess I was freaking out for no reason!...
My doctor just added 100 mg of welbutrin to the 15 mg of lexapro I already take. She said it would help with my fatigue and weight gain, but kept the lexapro in place because the welbutrin doesn't...
Thank you all, I did leave a message for a lawyer today. I will let you know what they say. Alaskah- I've worked in the insurance industry for 13 years, and I've never come across a short term...
