I'm so happy the Climara helped. I'm about to go over my PCP's head (he doesn't want me on Climara for some unknown reason.) and talk about Climara with my Psychiatrist, who manages my depression meds.

Guest guest Posted September 19, 2001 Report Share Posted September 19, 2001 Lara, I am so sorry to hear about your depression!! I too have been getting on the verge of clinical. My hormones and " stuff happening " have a lot to do with mine... I really need to go to counseling as well, I know better than not to, but it is really tough for me having a counseling background!!! I am glad that things are better for you and your medication is helping!!!

I am scared of them now. If I were you I would definetly go over your PCP's head. I mean I printed out the report by Dr. Rutledge and took it to mine and within five minutes the perscripton was called in. I hope things get better for you in the mean time. I know I will not recognize you so if you happen to see me please come and speak to me. Everyone has lost so much weight I am not sure I will recognize anyone except Dr. Rutledge of course.

And if anyone should choose to do this why not go with the best, after all it is your life and he started this, but now it is too late for your friend to change what she did , hope our prayers will help her.

We will all pray that your friend will make a complete recovery and be able to reclaim her life like so many of us have.
