Sorry I haven't really been around. My depression has been in a downward spiral. I have lurked but haven't had anything in me to respond to anything.
Today I had a pdoc appointment. We are trying a med change to see if that helps the depression, I am off of mirtazapine and will be starting ciprelex (which DH also takes). He gave me a card for free ciprelex and samples of abilify which will help us as right now we have no drug plan. __________________ Mags Depression diagnosed March 1996 PTSD diagnosed January 2000 BPD diagnosed September 2013 |

Tech can I ask why you came off the mirtazapine?
I (gradually) came off mine recently but that was my choice.. I am now waking with mild panic attacks in the middle of the night.. but my depression is extremely bad. Idk.. I hope everything works out for you at the pdocs. __________________ "I've lived through some terrible things in my life, some of which actually happened". - Mark Twain. |

When I first went on them a few years back the mirt worked a treat.. now this time they just don't seem to stop the other intense feelings that creep in.. I need to go back to the doc again.. Im so depressed its just revolting.. Hope it goes well for you.. __________________ "I've lived through some terrible things in my life, some of which actually happened". - Mark Twain. |

And it does sound like you need to go back to the pdoc. I hate depression more then I hate the BPD. Hope you start to feel better soon. __________________ Mags Depression diagnosed March 1996 PTSD diagnosed January 2000 BPD diagnosed September 2013 |

Thanks. I don't need any added weight as I was already obese. Trying to make healthier choices and exercise but it is so hard when you can barely drag yourself out of bed.
