In reply to any hope left for a dysthymic?, posted by jonh kimble on May 20, 2002, at 19:02:53
Hi John,
I have also been diagnosed as dysthymic. I felt really sad when the doctor told me that, wish he hadn't in way, because all that self fulfilling prophecy stuff.
Anyway I am currently taking 50mg of Prozac as well as Trazodone at night and B vitamin complex. I am pretty happy right now, life seems to working out OK. I sometimes wonder if the situation that you find yourself in is a major cause of Dysthmia. Are you happy with the things you have done with your life ? You have to remember that you must always make decisions which will lead you to a happier place. Even if it means leaving all the mundane things that make life crap and doing something that you really, really want to do. I know its hard when you have dysthymia to make decisions etc, just a thought.
Have you tried Prozac ? I didn't see it on your list.
