Every day gets a little bit harder, and yet I can't seem to decide what terrible side effects I am willing to live with this time around.
I've been off of all medication for 5 weeks now and my life is just one big emotional roller coaster ride. It's hell and unpleasant and on any given day I go back and forth s hundred times trying to decide whether to go back on an Anti-Depressent or whether to stay off.
It seems like a lose/lose situation for me. I am totally discouraged and am having trouble acceptting the fact that I will need to live a life either coping with some kind of medicinal side effects or one lived in the dark nether world of depression. What is the point?

I understand were you are coming from, I wish I had the answers. Whats making me not give up is the fact that some people have already labelled me as a failure, and thats the last thing I wanted. I'm currently on Effexor XL which isn't doing anything, not sure if its the drug or my mood has worsened.

Im sorry if i missed previous posts with info on what you have tried and what your dx is. Would you mind going over it again? I ask, because i was right where you are, emotionally, a couple of months ago and felt nothing would ever help. In desperation, i tried an maoi and have had wonderful results. Take care, Melodie
