Yes but there is a subliminal message playing backwards throughout, something about "you are all going to die soon, ha ha ha haaar, and we'll get your houses and dance on your smelly corpses" .... at least thats what I heard in the mix?

Medication for depression

by Dizzy Cat in

a little advise if possible.. i do suffer on and off from depression and am at present engaging in a warfare to overcome these problems, as unfortunately i have become bogged down with negativity again.. have any of you here used medication prescribed by your gp and if so, was it effective for you?

also, did you suffer any side effects from the use of the medication?.

i am interested as my gp has offered to put me on a course of anti-depressants, but to say i am fearful, is to understate how i feel about the use of prescribed drugs.

You all make sense and it is for "me" to find a way that suits my problem. Taking responsibility for me at the moment is a nightmare. I just about pull myself out of bed somedays. But don't feel sorry for me please, as I know you all know where I am at and there is recovery down the line somewhere.

I think the first thing to do is to break out of the unhelpful rituals that bind me. I am dependent on ritual to keep me sane. When I say ritual, I mean having everything a certain way in life. Breaking out of my routines hurts be badly on an emotional level and I think it is this barrier "I need" to break first. I am bound by obsessive behaviour and the realisation of this does not lessen its impact upon me personally.

Thank-you for all of your comments again. I will pop them in a Word doc and refer back to them. They are of value to me.

Many thanks for all of your thoughts and comments. I have studied them all and have something to chew over in my mind.

I think KelleyBlair seems close to my own understanding and if I can do, I think I will choose the course of more exercise (my diet is pretty good anyway - I'm not drinking at the moment and don't have high sugar foods etc) and try therapy.

The side effects scare me to be honest and I really don't want to have to deal with being in zombie mode. Or not deal with it, as I will be slightly detached and unaware.... shudder.

Co-dependency is the key word here. Very true sadly. I limp from one crutch to the next - oblivious quite often.

If you have any useful online resources about the types of drugs prescribed as well, that would be useful. I've had a look, but the few I have found are not that informative.

To all U.K. posters....

something i've always wanted to do is take some trip overseas to another country.

england has always been my first choice.. now i'm in a position to actually take a vacation in england.

i looked at some prices on expedia.com for airline/hotel combos for a week's trip to england and what i found made me very hopeful about going.. i tentatively "planned" the trip on the website for around the last part of february or the first part of march since that would be in the "slow" season at work and they could spare me.

I would definetly recommend avoiding London. Its just a big part of the RAT RACE ! Too overcrowded and overpriced. The attractions there are a major letdown as well. If you've seen London on the TV, thats about all you need to see.

I would say go to the Devon/Cornwall area of the UK instead and witness the beauty of the countryside. Not to mention the fresher air and slower pace to life.

For God sake avoid the place where I live - Birmingham. A mostly grey and miserable industrial centre ...
