hi MandyJane,

> Thanks lil'jimi for the encouragement. I really appreciate it. >

you're most welcome ... ... that's what we're here for ...

> I've upped my dose to 20mg. I don't know if I can up it any more than that. >

others have been up to 30mg and beyond ... ... "you're mileage may vary "

> I have a call in to my dr. Its kind of strange to talk about all of this stuff with strangers. I can see that you guys are a big support to oneanother. >

odd, isn't it ? ... ... it can be much easier to confide anonymously with strangers, than to tell our most trusted friend ... sometimes ...
... it was weird ... once when our female folk were comparing their sexual response and lex's effeect on them there ... ... i wouldn't often (ever?) hear that sort of thing, but we shared (i had anorgasmia as one of my lex SEs ... went away in a week), and it was cool ... a little weird, but it's wonderful here most of the time ...

> Yeah, I'm not expecting the financial issues to go away either. Unfortunately. I've felt more feelings of rejection from friends, jealousy, and insecurity than I used to. I don't know if they are related to the depression or are new things in friendships that I need to work through. >

friends can be a tough issue ... ... they can come with their own issues ... your psych issues could be triggers for their insecurities .... they could be posers faking friendship and bail out when they see they won't get anything ... ... some may be loving sensitive supporters who get overamped by their concerns for you ... ... and because we are havng emotional issues, we may be misintrepreting / misunderstanding / miscommunicating ... to where we think things are worse than they really are ... ... depression and anxiety can do that ...

... support of loved ones has been essential to my recovery ... ... you need some too ...

... good luck with your pals ...
... post when it can help you feel better
take care,
~ jim
