Okay, so I sent an email to blackfoot. Now I'll probably get all those "InCrease YOUR Staying Power***" spams in my email box.
Lil: thanks for your thoughts. I can feel the love!
So W wants me to go back onto my anti-depressant. Yes, she says that I didn't check with her before deciding to go off of it, and that I should have done that, and then we could have planned a better time to do this when there is "less stress" in our lives.
I told her no. I told her that I would do my best to keep my side effects to myself, that I would do my best to support her in this stressful time, but that I was not a depressed person and did not need to be on this medication. Furthermore, I would not stay on the medication just to avoid the side effects of going off of it.
She said that my decision would have consequences relevant to our relationship. She asked if I would move to my mother's house while I was going off the meds...and said that if I didn't, she might leave.
My take: She's trying to control me. I don't give a sh!t.
My plan: Proceed normally, don't share any weird feelings I'm having with her, learn from this.
