I've have depression and ocd and I just found out I have Crohn's. -- still waiting for the "official" Crohn's diagnosis - that lab test is coming back by the end of the week, but my GI is "95% sure it's Crohns"

This whole thing started about a month ago, hospitalization and now the meds - Prednisone and now Lialda and Flagyl and in discussion to start Humira down the line.

Before that I actually had my depression in control for a long while. Now it's spiraling out of control. I'm pretty devastated - this is all so new and hard to take in. But I also think the meds have a big role to play with that. I think the meds are really messing with me physically and mentally. Helping and bothering me at the same time...

I hate the idea of more meds - but I think I really need an antidepressant to regain back some control.

I'm glad to hear your condition is well controlled with the Humira. That gives me a lot of hope. Good to hear that it can be tamed a bit.
