    • About Me

      I am a caring, honest person. I have always been a follower and this is the first time in my life that I am living alone with my dog. I am used to my daughter keeping me on the straight and narrow. If I got down in the dumps too much she was always there for me. Now I am trying to keep my head above water without her. She was my brick. I think differently about life. I tell people to love their kids like there is no tomorrow because it could come true.

    • Interests

      I love animals. I like reading mystery novels. I live close to the beach but I like my neighbor hood pool to swim better. I walk my 5lb min pin. she lets me know every night after supper it is time to go for a walk. she won't stop jumping up on me till I get her leash and away we go. If it wasn't for her I would be a couch potato.

      Hi Carli, Hope your day gets better. Looks like you have had the same experience as I have had when it comes to medication. Things just worked for a little while and then it was on to something else. HUGS!

    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      I have been on an antidpresant since I was 18 yrs old and now am 55, have been on a different one every couple of years and still feel the same. never feel happy or even contect. I struggle every day to go to work and walk the dog. I feel I am just existing in this world waiting to die.

      Treatments

      Celexa Working / Worked
      the same as always. am on it now.
      Cymbalta Working / Worked
      I was so dizzy, I couldn't move very fast. I hated this med.
      Effexor Working / Worked
      feltthe same as on the others
      Lexapro Working / Worked
      felt the same as all the others. just felt they all quit after 2 years.
      Paxil Working / Worked
      made me so tired. didn't feel any better than the rest.
      Prozac Working / Worked
      the first time I was on this 20 years or so ago. it worked for a couple of years. then I had to try something else.
      Seroquel Working / Worked
      I took this when I was in the hospital, but I was on other things too. so don't know how it worked.
      Wellbutrin Working / Worked
      I tried this before and it was ok like the rest. a few years now and I am taking it with another one. my dr just told me to take 2 aday instead of one.
