Re: OT/new meds/being bummed out-long

[Guest guest]

My husband is on Zoloft. They just upped his dose. The first time it took

about a month to really kick in.

On Jenna Have you thought about trying B-6? A friend of mine is a nurse and

her dr said that was why her son was aggressive. It's a thought.

When gets agressive I always step up her OT. Is that possible?

Hugs

(Who yesterday cried until she was sick) it happens to us all.

Oh , I wish I could help. I don’t know about Zoloft I am on luvox.

I stoped taking it on October and stated feeling all sad again around

Christmast, so I started them again I still feel sad, but I don’t cry as

much. My problems are not even close to what you are going through so I

imagine your feeling terrible I hope you can find some help.

I had told you previouly that i went to the

doc for depression and he put me on Lexapro..well

that didn't do anything..so i went back today, and

i thought maybe he would up the dose, but he switched

me to Zoloft...now, i think i remember reading some

of you are on this...is this a good one? Im really having

a hard time coping lately, im also gonna see a therapist

to talk about things, but can't get in till feb 13...

wait, wait, wait....then im gonna start accupunture

on the 20th of this month for the pain in my arm, which

the doc also said is from too much stress..(hmmm, wonder

why)..then jenna's dentist appointment is the 31st for

the surgery...and my STUPID EX still hasn't got the

girls ANYTHING for christmas...BUT, he just bought a

95 4 door blazer (this is MY dream truck)...ass...

he already has 4 other trucks...WTF???? i think he

did this just to piss me off...the beginning of dec.

he emailed me a letter, saying he misses " us " and still

loves me...BUT when i confronted him about it, he

doesn't say anything about it...He's making me crazy..

i know i CANT go back with him...but that letter

made me cry...and makes me think about him all over

again...and then he buys this truck...but only has

seen jenna once since before christmas break...and rachelle

way before that...i don't know if he's in a drinking

mode again, or has someone new, which kills me to think

about...i have too much going on in my head, and its

making me so bummed...jenna is still being somewhat

aggressive at school, and i really don't know what to

do about that...one day she's fine, then the next day

not...i so hate this rollercoaster...i hate everything

right this minute...thanks for listening, if you made

it this far..im just so bummed today..you group of

people are the only ones who understand anything..i thank

you so much for that..sorry i haven't written more,

i want to, and i should, but everything is so hard

lately for me..its not fair we have to go thru all this

ALL the time...

Sounds like your Ex is playing mind games on you. I'm glad the girls aren't

old enough to understand about him and Christmas...how sad though.

As to buying the truck, I hope he is paying child support!

I'm glad you saw the Dr. about your depression, it does sound like your

other med wasn't doing too much for you.

Hang in there sweetie,

Sue

Zoloft is a pretty common one. Usually you need to work up to the dose but

if you've been on something else sometimes they have you go right to 50mg.

Matt and I are both on it and it works well for us. It doesn't work for

other people or the side effects are not tolerable. Prozac works well for a

lot of people that Zoloft doesn't work for and vice versa.

I know how frustrating it can be to find the right med(s!) in the right

dose(s). Hang in there hon, it WILL get better.

Oh how well I know that feeling.

Don't even worry about it. We all go through phases of not writing.

Everyone understands!

> nancy...who just can't stop crying

Please don't forget you can go to the ER or call 911 if things get really

bad. Please, , reach out for help if you need it.
