    • About Me

      I am a twice divorced mom of 4 but have been in a committed relationship for 8.5 years. An Admin for a Research 7 development team (one among my 4 or so job titles, now), I love my job. Before Major Depression seemed to take over, I used to be very crafty, loving to create just about anything.

    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      I have no one I can really turn to for support. My partner is convinced I m just paranoid and I have realized I can't go this alone.

      Treatments

      Effexor Working / Worked
      Been on this for two years. Seemed to be the miracle , at first, but seems to have run its course. No side effects.
      Lexapro Not Working
      Did not work for me at all.
      Psychotherapy Working / Worked
      Been seeing a counselor for two years. More off than on. Sometmes feel great when I come out, as often I feel worse.
      Support from Friends & Family Considering
      Tough one. My partner seems to believe this is "all in my head" and I should be able to snap out of it. My family all have their own major issues, they don't need more added and I have no one else that I am "close" with.
      Wellbutrin Not Working
      Did not work at all.
      Writing Somewhat Helpful
      When I can remember. Memory seems to be one of my major problems
      Zoloft Not Working
      Actually had a severe set-back while on Zoloft. Heard that it is a 50/50 shot with many.
