its the planets fault...stupid planets, *tosses rock at the stars*

not so much depressed as stuffing my emotions in an attempt to keep from fueling my fathers monstrosity of an ego

oh, i've been depressed all my life. it's what caused me to lose my past jobs, even the one in the military. but before i got out they put me on zoloft. before i was on effexor xr, but it wasnt doing anything. and on top of that i was preggo and had to stop anyway. but after i started the zoloft, life got a little better. yeah, i still had bad days sometimes, but i didnt freak out about it. in fact i've stopped freaking out (anxiety attacks) altogether. im not saying medication is the answer to everything, but you have to admit that it helps. im not into the touchy-feely group thing anyway.

Yes, I was doing better, and then last week the nightmares started again throwing me into deep despair. I had another bad one last night and just couldn't drag myself into work today. So I'm home and miserable and reading Toxic Parents to try and make sense of it all.

I'm on three different anti-depressants. They help to take the "edge" off of my blues. It's a hereditary thing that's been in our family for a long time. But I definately notice that this time of year it gets somewhat worse...S.A.D. probably. Arghhhhhhhhhh...nothing you can just "snap out of" either. (Of course back when I was in the org...the elder's would always tell me that getting to more meetings and out in service would help my depression. Jeeeeeeeeeeshhhhhh...that's what was causing it! What to do, what to do.

Well....the shit hits the fan with me about november....so I'm good for another 3 weeks.

Seriously, Mindchild covered a VERY COMMON ailment, that being SAD. I get so bad in the winter that I feel life sucks, I wonder why am I here to only have problems then die, nothing excites me, and it's a stuggle to exist. It doesn't take long for you to NOT be able to convince yourself that it just a seasonal disorder because you REALLY believe life sucks during this time. Thank god for summer!

Gumby...( btw......I may turn into a negative butthole in 3 weeks so be nice to me, ...ok?

I'm not sure what is wrong with me right now. I keep recalling things that happened years ago as I drive by places that reminds me of my family that are dead. I remember so many things that make me sad when I think about them and the good times I enjoyed in my youth. It's sort of like I'm not going to live much longer and I want to go back and do it all over again. I have a melancholy feeling that makes me sad. I was driving down a road the other day and remembered my mother and dad stoping at an old mill that ground wheat flour and it seemed like just a few years ago and I almost cried when I thought of my parents and I at that old place. I don't know why the old times keep comming up in my mind lately. I guess it is a form of depression. It's like I don't want to go ahead in life, but to go back to my youth.

I've got to concentrate on my current family and enjoy what I have now.

Me too..we seem to be all facing some kind of depression...

Mine has been sparked by a total loss of control in my life....Demanding boss who wants everything done his way and a demanding JW wife who wants everything done Jehover's way..No control at work or home. The cong is love bombing my wife which is all she needed to reconfirm she has the truth...

Yes, but I recently ran out of my anti-depressant, changed doctors, can't get it renewed...I think that' s the problem.
