Susana (2) - Learning to detach

[susana4]

Anyone have any thoughts or experiences on antidepressants or anti anxiety meds? I'm debating whether to go on ADs. Doctor kept trying to push meds on me for the last 8 months or so (I experienced a huge dip in mood over the summer due to work stresses) and I kept saying no but I'm really starting to think that may have been a mistake.

I tried IC in August but couldn't keep up with it. I didn't have the motivation. At the time I thought I just didn't like it but now looking back I think I was slowly letting depression creep up and take over my life.

H claims that BD had nothing to do with the months of me being depressed but I find that hard to believe. I think it must have put a huge strain on him, especially since he was always listening to my complaints and mood swings and problems.

In a way BD was good because it forced me to go back to the doctor and back to IC. I still refused the ADs but I'm beginning to think I just need to feel better ,now. The IC isn't working fast enough...
