Were you taking the Zoloft and Ativan in the hospital? Or is this a new med for you now that you are at home??

No experience with Ativan but have taken Zoloft. It didn't work for me.

Don't let it get the best of you. I took Zoloft a few years ago and had to mix it with Wellbutrin because Zoloft made me to zombie-like & sluggish while wellbutrin made me anxious. Worked for awhile then I decided to go off meds and work on myself. That worked for almost two years now back on meds for some extra help this semester in school. Taking Cymbalta this time around and so far seems to help. Kind of too early to tell. Keep your head up & I hope you find all the support here you need! Take care!

Completely understand! Somedays I wonder when I'm going to wake up from this nightmare. I just try and keep my head up and start each morning with a positive thought. You're whole day can be affected by your first thought. Always wake up and force a smile! Usually brings with it a good thought! Best of luck on here and with life! I've only been on here a few days and have already found an AMAZING support system of just a few people!! SMILE :0)

Ok so you've been on it for almost 2 wks. I thought maybe he just gave you the scripts today or ??

Yes, depression definately sucks! But some days are better than others. I wouldn't be afraid to fall asleep on the the meds.

Hope u feel better soon!

    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...
