    • About Me

      I love cats. I wish I had a bunch but couldn't afford the vet bills. I like them better than people (at times). I am chronically depressed. I put on a good front when I am around people-but it's getting harder to do. I am somewhat of a hermit and like to be by myself.

      I enjoy restoring antiques, going to yard sales and watching the waves at the ocean. I like watching: "House", "Paranormal State", Ghost Hunters", "Ghost Whisperer" and other TV shows.

    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      I have chronic depression. I don't feel like living at times. I feel hopeless most of the time. I have trouble getting out of bed in the morning. Sometimes I just don't want to be around people. I was abused when I was a child and it scarred me for life. I just try to live one day at a time. That's all I can do.

      Treatments

      Prozac Somewhat Helpful
      Been on it for years. I know when it was decreased some symptoms of OCD returned
      Psychotherapy Working / Worked
      Seroquel Working / Worked
      Helps me get to sleep. Helps with anger issues also.
      Wellbutrin Working / Worked
    • Close Psoriasis
      Affected Areas: Psoriasis of the Joints

      I am 45 years old. My Psoriasis has progressed to Psoriatic Arthritis. I've had Psoriasis for as long as I can remember at least 25 years. It is genetic. My mother's sister had it. I've had Psoriatic Arthritis for at least 13+ years that I can remember. It wasn't diagnosed until about 10 years ago. I wake up in the morning and cannot walk with out a cane or without pain. I often feel 80 years old not 45.

      Treatments

      Betamethasone (Topical) Working / Worked
      Used a long time ago. I do not need now. Humira takes care of both skin and joint issues
      Coal Tar Not Working
      Used a long time ago. Never worked on scalp. Yucky. Rather have the flakes!
      Dovonex Working / Worked
      Used a long time ago. I use once in a while now.
      Enbrel Working / Worked
      Worked for only 5 years then I had to use something else.
      Methotrexate Working / Worked
      Only worked for a short period of time-I had side effects-effected my liver levels or something like that.
      Humira Working / Worked
      Its a miracle drug for me!! It helps with the Psoriatic arthritic pain and it controls the skin outbreaks too. Its slowing down the progression of the arthritis. I really feel it when I cannot take the pen when or if I have a cold or an infection I need to stop taking it or skip a dose until the infection is over
