Dog's Dx isn't as big (recurrent depression). I asked at recent med check and confirmed what I thought; Dr says I should be on Rx's for life. Too many episodes, starting early in life. Too great of a chance of recurrence. At least I tolerate them well and this particular one works. No big deal.

I have plenty of times where I wonder what the big deal was all about. Why am I even taking this stuff? Why the counseling? I don't need this. But I continue because I know that's part of the disorder. It fools you into thinking everything's OK; you let your guard down; it's back again.

I wish I didn't have to deal with this but it's not a choice. It's there. I deal with it. I discuss it here and with a few people on the outside and that's it.
