Hi there,
I'm Kimmie, I'm a 28 year old married mother of one that has been struggling with depression for the better part of my life since puberty. My goal for 2004 is to come off my meds and find a way to deal with my depression without drugs as I am planning to have baby #2 in 2005.
I look forward to meeting you all.

Ohhhhh...I am Canadian too! There aren't too many of us on here. Can I ask where you are from? I am from Manitoba.
I have been dealing with depression for as far back as I can remember. It is certainly no fun!
If you are going to go off your meds, please consult your doctor. Some of them are pretty hard to come off of. I am on Paxil and it is awful to go off of.
I hope to hear more from you and get to know you better Kimmie.
Take care
Pamela

Hey Kimmie,
welcome to the board,
I think those are great goals to shoot for in the new year and you sound so positive about them that I am sure you will be able to achieve that goal..
Welcome again post often
and I look forward to getting to know you better.

Pamela, I'm just outside of Toronto!
Barb, Erin and Caly thanks for welcoming me!
I am trying to be positive about my goals, but like with anything my mood can change by the day and tommorrow I could be wishing myself into an early grave. :) I find that it's hard to get support from those that have never had depression and that is why I've sought out this board.
:) Kimmie
Kimmie you came to the right place! ((((((((((((KIMMIE)))))))))))))))

Smart idea to wait till spring too about your meds! As the wicked witch
once said,

I too am Canadian, Ontario to be specific. I am 26, married, two kids and have been battling depression for a good chunk of my life as well. I took myself off meds to have my first child but after my second it was very apperent that I was in a downward spin and much worse than before so please becarefull and prepaired. Good Luck and am looking forward to getting to know you.
