Be Cearfull. My Dr. said I was Suffering from Chronic Depression.
I was taking Meds and all. I ended up at the Funny Farm for 3 weeks.
Found out I am Manic Depressive. And any and all the Depressive Meds
make me go Psyco. So I can't take anything for it.
I don't mind the Manic part because I get Hyper and just start
Cleaning all over the place.
But the Depressive part bothers me a little.
But I then go to my computer and Draw and
I soon stop being Depressive.

So I understand and hope all go well for you.
Sincerely: Lone Fox

I hope things work out for you!
My best wishes to you! Feel better soon!

I do hope you'll be okay.

Good luck, Jenn.

Best of luck Jenn.

Hmmm if those anti depressents are to strong though, we might just be seeing some giggily happy journals fromthe panda soon enough ^.^ that would be kind of cute :p

This is a bad time of year for these sort of things. Work with the meds but have someone watching you to see if you start acting differently in a bad way. It will take a few weeks for things to be noticeable, but it will be like night and day.

Just remember in the mean time. You're a damn sight better than you think you are.

We'll be keeping good thoughts for you, Jenn. My brother struggled for a time with bipolar disorder, and I've struggled with anxiety issues in the past. It sounds like you're getting the help that you need, and that will help you feel better. I have faith that you'll be able to turn things around.

Get ready to walk down a new road, and may the Lord go with You.

Good luck Jenn! You have my support (Such as it is since this is the internet)!

When done well depression treatment can be a Godsend. Almost everyone has dark moods, sometimes yuh need a little help.

Good luck Jenn. Don't let that Depression beat you.

hmmm, I've never seenanything good come from anti depressants. Still it does not hurt to try.

Good luck and I do hope you can overcome the depression!

Well, if writing down what bothers you helps, then do it. I hope the medicine helps you.

Also, talking to somebody who listens to you is the best way to start getting over it.

Best wishes to you :) You might also think about speaking with a counselor or therapist. They can help you determine if the treatment plan is working well for you and make additions or adjustments as needed. A counselor also gives you someone impartial and confidential to talk with if you need. I spoke with one for a few sessions (it wasn't covered on my medical plan) in combination with medication therapy at my doc's suggestion. It worked well for me.

Just remember: if one treatment plan/counselor/etc doesn't work for you, don't give up! Not every medication or therapy style works the same for each person. If you notice drastic changes in your moods or behavior, tell your doc right away. He/she will help you change your treatment to fit your needs. Biggest thing to remember is that you're not alone! You have support from your loved ones and support from your doctor. You've accomplished the hardest step... asking for help. Best wishes :)

You know how I feel about this... Sends more Bugs Hugs. But as Zura stated you did take the hardest step,most people can't or won't ask for help. You are much stronger than you think...You must have been eating your spinich.

Good luck! Please feel better, and find people to talk to when you start to feel down.
