I have been feeling AWFUL for over a month, and I mean awful. I dont know what happened tonight (meds kicked in after a while, or a long confession session with my sister about some things), but I actually feel "normal."

I am hoping that it lasts when I go to sleep and when I wake up.

I just wanted to let everyone out there who is struggling and thinks that it will never get better, it will!! And when it does, enjoy it.

I am also glad, but my main reason for posting is that I have been on this board on and off for a month, and it is crowded with people who have problems like mine (and worse.)

I really hope I keep feeling good, and all of you find whatever it takes to make you happy.

Great! Doesn't it feel like a miracle when that dark cloud finally lifts.

It is so important to bump up these mesages of inspiration on the board, to give those with little hope some light and something good to look forward to. I too am coming out the other side of the depression, still recovering slowly but have more hope now than ever. Thanks and enjoy.

Made it another day, I was able to get up and go to work and get through a very stressful day. I even managed to SMILE a few times.

Feeling a little blue now, but not as bad as it was.

I am on celexa (for about a month) and just started wellbutrin Wednesday. As I said earlier, I don't know if its meds or talking or a combo, but I just felt like letting people know that someday, it will get better.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
