Back on medication

Posted on 03/12/09, 12:53 pm
For depression...the pain in my joint, from all the cold rainy wet weather wore me back down mentally so I made a decision to get back on an anti-depressant as why do I need to suffer so is what I figure!
I am able to recognize when it is more than I can handle and I hope this medication works out ok..I may only need it for a while to build the seratonin that pain depletes my brain, back up to normal levels..whatever normal is, lol...hope everyone is doing ok? Tried to get a shout out from everyone but alot of people are very silent these days...at least we're all still alive by the grace of God!!! Have a beautiful day friends!

    I'm around, just not as much. I am working nights, and dealing with Kylie's antics and trying to live a regularly scheduled life.
    I am glad that you went back onto the antidepressents. It is better to recognize the problem and take steps to slove it, than to deny that it is even there!

    To update you guys,,I was able to get rid of my couch and a friend gave me a much nicer and more comfortable one and immediately the pain in my sacral joint lifted. I can now get around alot better and am resting better at night. In fact I'm resting so much and having other symptoms that are all pointing in the direction of MS..i have suspected it in my past and have an MRI of my brain years ago that showed a questionable area that was "abnormal'..so I'm in research mode to find out all I can about it..I have missed you guys but I am always sleeping in between household chores, the grocery store challenge weekly and working on the writing of my book..I've got 3 chapters completed..thanks for all your love, patience, support and kind words to me from the beginning..God truely lives here in so many hearts! I love DS...
