Another one of those days

Depression really sucks! I’ve been on so many meds and now I’m going to try Pristiq. I’ve been on Effexor for a few years. It gave me asthesia. I know I’ve got so many things to be grateful for. I have a loving daughter, her grandparents are such a huge support. Today I took my daughter to the dermatologist for a routine appt. my sister had sent me an Outback Steakhouse gift certificate. We went there after the Drs appt but I couldn’t enjoy myself. I felt despair, hopelessness, sadness, and worry. I feel bad for her that her daddy’s sick, she’s such an incredible little girl. But I know I must fight not just for me but for her. Any comments... would be appreciated Blessings. Samson

Do you constantly keep trying different meds?

No. I actually have stayed in a few for quite sometime but they wouldn’t help. A few others I just couldn’t take the side effects.

There is no alternative?

I’m so sorry you are struggling like this. I had to switch meds too and Lexapro is working for me thank goodness. Don’t stop fighting this won’t last forever
