, I don't think your meds for depression are working. You sound like me when my depression drugs have stopped working.

I would call your doctor and ask him about it.

Your in my prayers.

May God Bless you today and Always. Love and prayers Carol

To-Debbie, re depression fr Trudy- and leslie, help pls.

Debbie, I wish I could help you, and myself. I logged on to ask for help myself. I took paxil a few years ago during marriage to an abusive husband, and sort of like trudy it helped a little but it was awful sexually.which of course made him even more angry than usual. and i always felt that i was living in my head, it was as if my heart, which has been a source of problems but also is a part of my identity, just wasnt in the mix. does that sound familiar to anyone who has taken these depression drugs..like youre a big walking head and that's all? thats the best way i can describe it.so I dont know what to do, I am seeing a holistic therapist who encourages me to cry whenever, that its healing, but I am having to stop myself on the street, on the subway, at my desk, in an elevator, it seems i am just on the verge of crying all the time, every other minute, and its not practical. I feel like i have to go home and warn my son, dear, i am going into the bathroom to cry for awhile and then ill be out and we'll make dinner...he's 19, what does he make of it when i do this? what kind of role model and i being?.And I hate feeling like such a wuss, i know peope have it worse than me, all over the world, and people right here in this group, so I am ashamed of how cowardly I am in the face of this disease. I wish someone could help, both of us. hugs, leslie> Debbie, I took celexa for depression and it was wonderful, it even helped > with some anxiety (sp) problems that I had.
