Hello everyone....i just wanted everyone to know that, i went to the doc this morning and talked to him and i finally had the courage to say "i need help"! My doctor prescribed me 2 different types of meds...1 for my depression called "celexa" and the other one to help me sleep called "Innvonl" if anyone has ever had any experience with these meds please let me know for i don't know anything about it! Thx

I am sorry I don't know anything about either medication, but a big KUDOS to you for letting your doctor know what was going on.

I am so proud of you.

HUGS!!!!

good for you, getting help! i haven't tried either of those med's - just a note, if you've never tried antidepressants, some work w/ your body chemistry, some don't - there are many to choose from if by chance you have any problems.... just don't give up. good luck fmom ;)

Well done!!!
TBH, other peoples experiences of meds can differ greatly, which is why there are so many varieties available....
The main thing is to find the ones that work for you!!
Massive congratulations on making those first brave steps! xx

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
