Hi LostMom3,

I agree with all the posts. Please continue to find a therapist or a group that you connect with and that can help you. There are many out there that are good and some not so good. It is important to hang in there until you find that right mix.

Over the years, I watched my mom go off and on of her medication because my dad did not like her being on meds. I watched her yo yo with her depression and it was so difficult to see her that way when she was so much better on her meds. My dad is very controlling of my mom. Finally, he saw how much better she was on her meds and finally quit having her stop and she has been so much better.

By your name, I have to assume that perhaps you have children and if you are not on your medication, your actions may be unpredictable and that may be very distressing for your kids. Please consider staying on it until you can find the right type and kind of medicine.

Staying in touch with PC is certainly helpful. There is a lot of support and wisdom shared by many.
