Finally

I have not been on here in a few days. I have been really down lately going back and forth to two different doctors trying to get back on my meds so i can try and get my depression stable again been going for over  a month  one doctor did not want to knock heads with the other so neither on was writing meds (very upsetting). Well I finally told my doctor look one of you have to give because all this going back and fourths is just aggravating me to death and I can not deal with it. So she wrote me Welbutrin XL and Vestrail. Hope it helps get me back on track and now I go to couseling once a week yay. I have been trying to blogg on my space and just writing to vent a little.

I'm glad you were finally able to make progress with one of your doctors - I'm proud of your for being assertive! Have you been on these meds before?  How long before you will notice the effects of the medications?

Hope you are doing well today!

I have been on Wellbutrin for over a year now.  My depression came from the diagnosis of my condition, Systemic Lupus.  To be told I have a deadly disease that has no cure and I can no longer do all the things that I love was such a heartbreak.  At least you are battling only two doctors.  I have to battle 5 doctors when ti comes to my condition; Primary, Rheumatologist, Nephrologist, GI, and Endocrinologist.  I'm sorry you have been going through depression for awhile.  What sometimes helps me is to think it could be so much worse.  At least you are married and have kids.  I can't no longer have children because of my condition.  If you feel down come on her and talk it out.  That's what I've been doing.  Much love to you!! :-)

I agree at least I do have my family. I know it is just depression compared to what is wrong with others. That is why i feel guilty sometimes for being depressed because I know there is people whose battles are a lot worse than mine.
