Re: Has anyone tried antidepressants for morgellons?

Jess DONT LET SELF DOUBT IN!! I know that easy for me to say, but that wlll overtake you. Do you have a cell phone? Somehow you need someone strong that you can talk to. I just remember how devestating it was for me to have that doctor and his nurse look down at me and agree that I was delusional!! I think a big part of healing has to do with positive attitude and sometimes we need others to get the ball rolling in the right direction. I hope someone can help you with that but try not to doubt yourself!! You will get betterSent from my iPhoneOn Jun 23, 2010, at 12:10 AM, jessnyc <helpnynow@...> wrote:

Thanks so much, Marguerite, I wish the same for you and everyone here.

Lately I've been doubting myself more than ever. I'm staying with family

after I almost end up homeless due to depression and all my time/money

spent on bug control.

Everyone, family, doctors, etc, seem to think this is truly just a

mental thing. Not a single person in my life sees this as real, even

after seeing the fibers. They all say it's the type of clothes I wear..

just go figure, I wear regular clothes and probably more sweaters than

others since I don't warm up easily. To the point I'm unconsciously

trying to think its all in my head..and I can't stop taking adderall

(with side effects of formication) because I get more depressed than

ever, and I'd rather feel bugs than hit the bottom with depression.

Finally got tested for lyme and will get the results in a week. I've

been having all kinds of pain in my joints, especially hands and knees,

and occasionally feet, so who knows.. that will be a big sign.

Thanks for you concern and best wishes to you,

Jess

you sound very strong for such a young man! I hope you get the supper of your family where you need it most!Sent from my iPhoneOn Jun 23, 2010, at 2:22 AM, <danielwalker94949@...> wrote:

I don't know if you are willing but i tried the it's all in my head thing for a while. I thought just get me out of this hell and maybe this will work. That was when i checked into the mental place. It was my last time i had somebody tell me what to do. Of course the bugs didn't go away and they accused me of being annerexic and on drugs. Ha my bmi was normal when they looked it up and there were no drugs in my system. Being there i met people with real problems and kind of gained a new reflection of myself.

Hi Jess, I am sorry that no one believes you. I never had the courage to tell my family and friends about my problem with morgs/mites for the last 3 years. I know they would think I am crazy and I don't want to deal with that. It is hard to hide sometimes, though.

Jess -

I'm serious. Get that Home Depot mold test kit I mentioned. Throw some of your

black specks and fibers in there and send it off. It is only 30$ for the lab to

analyze it. Before I did this, my husband believed only what the doctors told me

that it was normal to have black specks come out of your skin. When I got the

report back that proved it was mold, my husband now sings a different tune.

Focus on reducing the fungus and mold which is the source of the problem, and

the other things will take care of themselves.

We all have been there, girl. Alone, with no one to believe us and the horror we

have to go through by ourselves. But it will get better... and you have US.

One HUGE thing which has helped me was finding a doc who used holistic medicine.

I had so many nutritional deficiencies .. but she helped me with that. We also

found that I was severely deficient in Vitamin B12, which I believe was key for

me. I would also recommend getting tested for heavy metals, which can contribute

to a malfunctioning immune system. Since going on B12 shots, being loaded up

with vitamins/minerals, and doing some heavy metal chelation.. and taking some

5-htp and samE.. my depression of 20 years is GONE!! It's really amazing. I am

not on any pharmaceuticals for depression, although I severely needed to be for

years.

Hang in there...
