Antidepressant
Started a new antidepressant. Actually it is one that I took for a few months. I gained a lot of weight. Out of the many meds I tried, it possibly helped. I have a history of depression and with everything that is happening in my life right now. I must prepare for battle. I have only been taking Remeron since Friday. Today I can feel it. The wind feels good. Hard to explain, but when I'm depressed and/or numbed by my mood stabilizers I don't feel it. It is a good sign. My appetite is coming back. Ate lunch and dinner. Can't remember the last time I had two meals in a day. Now I have to make sure that I don't get mania.
Hard to explain how scared I was of going back to the hospital with a "Nervous Breakdown." I was getting very close. That's why I called my psychiatrist. Anyway trying to get as strong as possible for all that is now and ahead.

Ladybug, It sounds like you are hanging in there and sometimes as I am sure you know that is the hardest part. But you keep on, I am glad your feeling a touch better, that your appetite is there, and that your wise enough to make the call to your psychiatrist when you felt the need. Please take care, Bill
