Hi Beth...your profile bio sounds upbeat...
Quote From: beth93 People label me as having major depression. I have the problem with the underdeveloped pineal gland never secreting the correct amount of melatonin regardless of time of year. So I take Prozac which was helping.
I took Depakote to prevent jerks and tremors. My Neurologist wanted to take me off the Depakote to see if I could function without it. Apparently, Prozac is used to treat Turette Syndrome so he thinks Prozac should hault the jerks and tremors.
Ever since he took me off the Depakote, I have been feeling down and have not been able to sleep. Of course, having my 39th birthday and having mid-life crisis feelings does not help. According to Leigh, I have all the symptoms from biological ticking and feeling lonely..of course being single never married makes things worse.
I have become increasingly angry and upset with myself. This afternoon I cut myself with a safety pin when I was feeling very upset with myself. it did not hurt. Nobody will notice the cut. Beside, nobody got hurt. I have these intense feelings of self-anger and being upset with myself when I have kept things bottled up too long. I keep reminding myself that things will get better. This is only a cycle. At least, I got a good night sleep taking Lunesta.
Beth I hope the Prozac works and sounds promising. If doesn't, ask if you can take the medication that worked again. I think I have seen Lunesta advertised on television. Do you belong to any support groups? What type of gardens do you like best? Hugs and prayers, SEA
