Hi, Kim. I posted with you in the quit smoking forums and was glsd to get your e-,mail as well. I just joined this sight s well, and its so good to hear from familiar faces with the same problems.I've been on meds for almost 6 years now, and have them balanced pretty well, but can't seem to shake the depression. My hubby even had a sun room built onto the house so I'd get lots of light, but I'd really like to get off the meds. I know I can't stop taking Nardil, which is an older med that worked for me better than anything. Over a year of changing and blancing to get what was good for me. I want to get back to my carving and rock polishing, but can't seem to get the inscentive to do so. Its been so hot lately, we had to go out and get an airconitioner for the sunroom. Nowhere to excape it, except the campground, which we haven't been back to at the ocean for a week now. Have things to take care of here. One thing you hve to remember is to make sure you draw an invisible wall around you and DO NO let anyone to enter YOUR SPACE. That is sacred. One thing I had to do, which was one of the hardest things to do, was to be an enabler for my son, who is a cocaine addict. He was eating my life away, and I was trying to help him.But I came to realize that HE can only do that and I had to back off. We still talk on the phone, but he is NOT allowed to say,'I need' to me. We bet along better this way, he is in a group home and working full time, and is now paying me back some of the money he took. Not all, because he'd be in the poorhouse forever,; but is much more responsible now. With that porblem gone, I thought I could relax and lower my meds, but I guess that is not the root of my depression. I hope I find ways here to help with that. Well, enough for now. I posted under introducing myself for more infor about me if youy wish, but so glad to see you here. LUV for now, and hugs to you. ;)
