HI all, sorry if i am a pain i nthe but, just that i am finding it very difficult to even live at the moment, i am suffering from severe depression, i never felt this way before, i been like this for about 3 weeks, yes i had depression 4 years ago but nothing bad just loniless i suppose, i started effexor for it then my anxiety started, and 4 years later i am riddled with anxiety and now depression because of it, i am currently taking 30mg remeron, i have been on it for over a year now, when i up the dose my anxiety is worse i am basiclly climbing the walls, not sure if you all know but ssri's so do not agree with me, i can not take them due to bad side affects i.e. high bp and high heart rate, effexor reboxatine and there was another (cant remember) all made me very manic, and prothiaden and trazadone both gave me panicky reactions (my hrt was beating very slow i was dizzy and panicky) so remeron at the time of starting it has done great i think, its sort of cut my anxiety maybe 50% or so but i feel i am getting worse again, i am back and forth from the doctor on call at night time cus of my heart, i have had an ekg and been giving valium (dont give klon and xanax out), the reason for going to the doc on c all is because i can not deal with going to my doctor cus he just keeps questioning me about how i am g etting on at home etc, which everything is ok i guess, he DID refer to me to a physcyicatrist and she gave me zoloft, last year this was and i ended up in hospital on it cus of the side affects, she signed me of i think because my doctor was the one who took me of it and maybe she didnt like that, anyways i was re refered back to her this yr took about 12 mnths to get bk in to see her and she then gave me fluanxol which sent me manic badly and my hrt rate was like fastest EVER, she signed me over to a group of people called mind, they give you befreinders? and take u out etc.... i feel a right pain going to my doctor, i havent been to see him for about 4 weeks like cus i feel a right pain, i dont think there is any more they can do for me now? IF i go back to see another doctor they always tell me to come back to see my doctor apart from 2 which one of them tells me to fight it and i dont need meds and the other one keeps offering me ssri's which it says on my notes that i am unable to take them.. grr makes me so mad..
anyways these past weeks have been so bad for me, i been crying non stop, my hrt is skipping beats, i am so so so depressed and to top it all off i just found out that i have the beggining symptoms of cervical cancer :-(( i am having to have cells burnt away, and because i am overweight i have to be awake for it) --plse bare in mind this depression started before i had the results, So anyways i need some help and advice on medications, i need a freind, i can not talk to my mum as she has her own problems and i havent really any freinds here, i am scared real scared cus it feels as if i am losing my mind, lately it feels as if i am not me, and it feels as if someone is trying to take over my body, and also i been getting some dirty nasty dreams thats on my mind all the next day, i can not be near my freinds kids, i am afraid of doing something bad, ( i am a mother of a 4 yr old girl) i am just scared in my boots basiclly and no where to turn.. plse help..thankyou
Regards
Donna

Hi Donna..
Firstly I want to say that the cervical cells are nothing to worry about--they do a coloscopy to make sure the pre cancerous cells ( doesn't mean you'll definately get cancer)are removed, then you'll have another smear in 6 months.
I went through this and am ok.
Anxiety..I'm sorry , I'm suffering as well..taking alot of neuronyin.
My heart skipps beats and thumps..but had this problem for years.
It's so annoying that uk have no time all the waiting for weeks for just a rushed appointnent.
I hope others here can advise..All the best..

> thanks for the reply..Hey!!!!
I know this doesn't really follow the meds part of this forum but I'm just following the thread...I have had cancer cells removed from my cervix 3 times this year alone. Keep you head up it sounds worse than it is trust me. If you ever want to chat to someone or you feel unhappy let me know and I'll give you my email address.

Hi,
I am not sure what to tell you in terms of the depression. But believe it or not it sounds like your dealing with it. On another note I was diagnosed with HPV 6 years ago and they removed it. Back then they said after a year you are prob not contagious but wear a condom. Now they say a condom doesn't help. # or 4 strains of this cause cervical cancer in women if they don't go to ob gyn every year to get pap smear. Anyway, these doctors have thoer heads up their ass. I mean they never told me what kind I had and said a condon prebvents the spread. I have always told my partners about it but I'm pissed off that I could be causing this shit.

Sorry to be such a prude, but please don't use language that could offend others. The last time you were blocked, it was for 1 week, so this time, it's for 2.
