No, I'm not seeing a C. I think it is clinical depression, but I know the things I've been through with my children and the problems in my M certainly adds to it. I have an app't with the doctor on Oct 4th, so I'll see what he thinks. He is my Fibro doc and he will know what meds will effect that.....and the FM (Fibro) is what I have to consider first. I say that b/c like for years I was taking the wrong type of pain meds and it was actually triggering the FM pain. So, I don't want to take something that goes against it. I have tried for close to a year to handle the depression without any medication, but it looks like I'm not doing a very good job. I think I mentioned in one of my post that at one time I was on about 3 different types of AD at once and it really had me messed up. I don't want to get like that again. My family thinks that is what led me to do some of the things I did (like the on-line...OM stuff), but I won't blame it on that. I am responsible for my actions. My mother mentioned that a few days ago when I brought up the subject of getting back on AD and how I was not myself when I was on all that stuff. But, if I can find the right medication, and it would give me some relief and some "hope" and motivation for life......anything right now sure would help.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
