Depression issues-to in AR & anyone else that wants to listen

[Guest guest]

Hi .

Since we've talked so much about depression issues, I wanted to update you on

what's going on with me. You know I'd mentioned these " surges " of

dizziness/light headedness? Well, I saw my doctor on Wednesday this week and

we went over my meds once again. When I told her how I was taking the

Wellbutrin, which consisted of taking 1 tab and cutting another in 1/2 and

taking the 1/2. She said, " Well, that's the problem. You can't cut

Wellbutrin in 1/2 because it is time released and will go into your system

all at once. " Didn't I feel silly? She seems sure that's what is causing

the dizzy feeling. However, I haven't cut any in 1/2 since Wed. morning and

even yesterday I was still having those dizzy surges. I'm hoping that will

remedy it, and it's just taking a few days to straighten out. She added

Zoloft to my medications and I go back in 2 weeks to see how that's doing.

Zoloft is what you said you're taking, right? She's added the Zoloft in

addition to 100 mg Wellbutrin. I've been real depressed since last weekend.

Yes, something happened to cause it (THANK YOU, WADE!!!), but I'm struggling

with a lot of feelings/emotions. Why is it that when a man leaves you, that

he still feels the need to see if I'm still there to jump when he says

" jump? " That's a whole other story in itself and I won't go there.

So that's my story and my update. I hope and pray that you're feeling

better. I just started the Zoloft yesterday and will take 25 mg for 7 days

and then increase to 50 mg. I'm eager to see if it helps. I think I'm going

to slap one of the hormone patches Dr. R prescribed on my body too and see if

it'll help. I am having a BAD case of PMS on top of everything else. I'm

very difficult to live with right now. My poor daughter.

Hope you're doing good. See you soon.

Love,

in OK

I'm so sorry you're still having problems with this man. Is he the

father of your daughter? I hope things get better for you soon.
