I know most of us don't like taking medication, but there are times when it's called-for. An A/D isn't a cure-all and it doesn't solve problems, but at least it makes it a little easier coping with these things. Since I'm clinically depressed, I've been on one for years -- without it I would have done myself in long ago with all the losses I've had in my family.

I hope you feel better SOON -- I know how debilitating this can be. Take care of yourself and God bless. Hugs, Lee

Hey Lee, Thanks alot for those kind words, I am actually going to see my doctor this afternoon to speak to her about some anti depressents and hopefully take it from there and I am going to see a psycologist too, so hopefully this will help me to move forward with my issues.
