it's been a long road, and i feel like after having this baby my hard work will all be undone and i'll hate life again. i found meds that worked for me, FINALLY after years.. and i think once my hormones change and everything they won't work anymore. i'm going to get my placenta encapsulated and see if that helps..

Every person has thought about it maybe even in passing. What isn't normal is to have a plan. At least when I was in the hospital they told me not to freak out until it starts becoming a plan.

yea. i have very dangerous suicidal ideation issues. I'm on medication to stifle their strength, but I still think about it every day.

I've been on antidepressants and antianxiety meds for about eight years now. I think I am a person that is incapable of being completely happy.

that's the worst feeling. do you think the meds are helping at all, or are you willing to try something else?

when i was on celexa i OD'd.   i just wanted to stop hurting. they made me drink charcoal. ugh.

I used to feel this way. It took intensive hospitalization and day treatment for 6 months for me to realize that I CAN be happy and I DESERVE to be happy. But it took a LOT of treatment.

Yessir!!!

Oh yeah, they keep the worst at bay. Before I was put on medication, I was agoraphobic. I couldn't leave the house. I was afraid of everything. The phone. Open windows. Any type of communication with other than my immediate family. I have come FAR. I am now fairly social and hold down a career as a 5th grade teacher. I still have anxiety attacks. I have accepted that I always will. And for the most part, I'm still depressed. I've accepted that, too.

I feel the same way  

Yes especially after the lose of my first baby at five months my dogs kept me from taking my life

life is too hard.   i wish we could still be like our innocent children who never feel these things. i'm so glad you have come so far, though! that's great!

I feel the same way but I don't feel the medications aren't working. I don't talk to anybody other than immediate family. I don't go anywhere but to therapy appointments. I don't drive.

I'm proud of you for being a teacher!
