Guest guest Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 You should remake the appointment and speak to your doctor about adding a good antidepressant. A combo of Wellbutrin SR (200 mg qd) and Remeron (45 mg qd) has done wonders for me. You should also consider throwing your scotch away. It not only increases depression and feelings of anger and hopelessness, but it damages the immune system too. Exercise is a better way of dealing with stress. Is it possible that your scotch is functioning as that albatross around your neck? Joe Okay folks, I've had it! I waited for an hour and forty-five minutes to see my doc today only to be told that there were 3 more people in front of me. I left. My time is just as important as his. I can't take this anymore. I know what the outcome of this virus is going to be, so why do I continue to play this stupid game? I'm so sick of taking meds, getting stuck with needles, waiting anxiously for the latest results, seeing therapists, and everything else that goes with this! I poured myself a hefty glass of scotch when I got back home and the only thing it's done is take the edge off. I'm still pissed as hell! I want to walk away from all of this. I want to live my life doing the things I like to do and die when I'm supposed to die. I'm tired of the side effects. I'm tired of the prejudice and bigotry surrounding this virus. I'm tired of all it!!! It was better when I didn't know. They say that knowledge is power, so why does it feel like a burden? The image that comes to mind is that of the Ancient Mariner with the proverbial Albatros. I just want to walk into the void. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
