You're never boring.

I understand.

I'm allergic to many things, including aspirin and many antibiotics. I have to have a child's dose of anaesthetic when I go to the dentist (finally, a dentist who himself has allergies and didn't put my almost falling out of the chair down to 'nerves').

It adds a layer of complication to everything. It's one of the reasons I've never before taken an antidepressant.

I've been taking sertraline for a couple of weeks. I have some side effects, but I'm trying not to over react to them.

I'll go back to my GP soon, and talk through the next stage.

I have LITTLE faith in doctors!

But there are some who are nicer than others.

Perhaps you can also slowly consider going back and back and back again, until you find a doctor who 'gets' you.

Best wishes and hugs.
