Just need to vent a little
| Sun, 02-01-2004 - 11:17pm |
I guess everything is going okay with me. I have been taking Lexapro for a couple weeks now. Overall, I feel alot better. I do have my days though. Like right now I feel a little overwhelmed. Nothing big is going on just small things that are not going to plan. And wouldn't you know that those small things make you feel like your world is out of control! I am trying to be positive, but I feel sad. I don't think my husband really understands me. He said he has never known anyone who had to take antidepressants. I know he loves me, but I guess it's hard for him to understand what I'm going through.

I'm glad that you're feeling better...it's OK if you still feel somewhat sad...you're doing a great job by trying to stay positive. Your husband probably knows many people who have been on antidepressants...he just doesn't know that they take that kind of medication...because there are many, many people that do. There is nothing horribly "wrong" with you because you take medication as well...you're doing what you need to do to feel better, like a diabetic person taking insulin.
Do you see a therapist? If so, maybe you could bring your husband to one of your sessions, if you arrange for it with your therapist beforehand. Then maybe he could get a better idea of what you're going through.
Hope things start to look a little brighter for you,
