Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
I really am not sure sometimes what exactly is wrong with me. One minute I am so depressed I feel like I could start bawling. Then another time I am so anxious and stressed that I feel like I have to scream to release my stress. Yet another time I feel like I need total quiet and I get stressed from too many people around me. Then yet another time I feel great, happy with the world, and nothing is wrong.
What is wrong with me?
I am on Prozac for depression but I am dealing with the weight gain side effect of the drug. I'm off to see the doctor next week to find out if I can take a different drug that might not cause the weight gain. I've tried Lexapro but that caused other nasty side effects . . . most notibly constipation. So, I'm eager to find another drug that will help me to stabilize my moods more permanently.
It's weird 'cuz when I first started taking the Prozac I felt great! Now I've been on it for about 2 years and I've been noticing all these other weird feelings. I don't know if these are a result of Prozac not working, or other problems coming to light.
WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME !!!!!!!!

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...
