Guest guest Posted June 24, 2005 Report Share Posted June 24, 2005 Good morning , A couple of things you need to remember (even though I always don't) is that this is the time where YOU NEED TO COME FIRST. That means taking care of your needs...one of those is the pills. I assume they were prescribed to you for a reason. You say you don't know why you don't take them...could it be you have no hope they will help you, so why bother? You won't know for sure until you have been taking them for several months, and a better judge of the benefit would be someone close to you. They don't have to know you are taking them...just ask if that person can tell a difference in your mood recently. Mind you, they are not miracles...but they can take the rough edges off of life, which may allow you to focus on the more positive aspects. If you are like me, you are very good and self-flagellation and weak on self-acknowledgement. This needs to change. Punishing ourselves for " mistakes " is not beneficial...rewarding yourself for corrective measures is. You need to come up with some non-food awards. Flowers...entertainment...a walk outside or even sitting on a park bench somewhere. Anything that says, " aah...this is nice " ...as opposed to " idiot " is important to incorporate into your life. Again...stick around... > Thank you , I will try. > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
