OK...So I haven't been the greatest poster and that makes me feel crappy because I am usually such a peppy person and friends with everyone...so I have to apologize to all you for being such a neggie head (negative person lol)
As most of you know I started the anti depres. meds about 3 weeks ago and am still waiting..the docs havent increased the dosage any because of past health problems and she is watching me closely...so keeping my fingers crossed that this zoloft stuff makes me happy or crazier or something..but I want to feel some kind of difference !!!(the average "high" point is 6 weeks)
Anyways..I wanted to promise ya'll that I will not be such a butthead and be more positive towards all of you and myself...I'm so sorry for being so turdy and I really feel poopied (can you tell I have kids?!?!?) because of being such a downer..So anyways..thats it..my big declaration !!!

Thanks for the advice on the zoloft and fixing the doses..I dont know what happened after I had the baby I turned into a total witch and have pushed away so many people..I hate being this way..but I see the light at the end of the tunnell..I just cant seem to reach it..So the zoloft helped you ? What made you get off of it and did you have any bad side effects afterwards ? Thanks for your responce and that Im not a poop head..lol ~hugs~

My mom started taking them when i did and is still on them, they've upped the dosages a few times and have also lowered them and just the last few months has really been getting depressed again. She went to dr a few weeks ago and they lowered the zoloft and put her something else too. My sis has been on a lot of different antidepressants too and is now off them. I guess it runs in the family, aren't we lucky. I hope you find what works, it's a terrible feeling. I know i also felt guilty and feeling depressed and guilty at same time isn't a good combo. Good luck!
If it turns out that Zoloft doesnt work for you ask you Dr about Lexapro. This time last year I was so depressed that I refused to leave my room, or eat. Every day I woke up wondering if I would kill myself that day (sorry this is so morbid). Anyhow, the good news is I went to my Dr and he prescribed Lexapro (which can take effect in as little as 4 days) and it helped me immensly. I used to think that there was no hope and that everything was pointless. I didn't think a pill would make those feelings go away but it did and I am feeling better than ever!
Even if you stay on Zoloft at least you are taking steps to make yourself feel better! Keep it up and dont give up on yourself. You're a wonderful person from what I've seen!
Best wishes,
Susan
