Hi Silver Bullet

Thank you for your reply. I'm happy to know the Celexa has been working for you. What I wonder is how the docs figure out the drug combining. Of course, they have knowledge of the drugs they prescribe. I truly believe that our brain chemicals get "mixed up." I have recently been posting about starting back on Serzone, having very good feeling for a brief period of time and then plunging back into the darkness. I have had a day of feeling good all day today. Joy, Joy. It's like night and day. When you are in the pits of depression, you simply can't think straight and you are in so much pain. But when the medicine kicks in, it's a totally different story. Totally different outlook. So I pray this medicine continues to help and not poop out. Yesterday, I was so physically down, I couldn't get up to go to work and was not the least bit interested in it. Today I feel like a different person,( not manic though but just feeling "normal" is a gift) grateful that I have the job in this cool place and looking forward to the passes you get to bring your friends in, and looking forward to being a spectator watching the penguins and dolphins, etc.

This medicine has just to keep working, that's all there is to it. Although I am looking into volunteering in law enforcement. I used to be an RN, then medical transcriptionist, then the arthritis got to my fingers. I really, really, liked that job. So after experiencing such age discrimination (San Diego), I got a job as an armed security officer. Now they were really abusive. If I disagreed with something that my supervisor wanted me to do, he would take my gun. What a jerk. Anyway, I was not into allowing myself being abused.

So I'm really looking forward to hear back from you.

Love

KK
