I sat my husband down and had a long talk with him. I found out there is alot of things he does'nt know about depresion. He always kept saying "Why can't you just get over it?" I explained to him you can;t get over depression. It is'nt just a feeling that it is a diesese. I told him how he made me feel when he said things like"get over it". He thought all along I was mad at him but I let him know I was actually mad a myself that it had nothing to do with him. I think mabye he understood alittle more because I could tell a differance in the way he talked to me last night and this morning. He was'nt so mean and cold. I hope I keep feeling better mabye even more better tomarrow than today. Having a dog helps out alot to. Because even though I don't want to go outside I have to every few hors or I'll be cleaning up a nasty germy mess. That and walking
Mimi for 30 minutes every few hours is good excersise too. Mabye I don't need anymore meds. After the horrible thing that happened with zoloft I dont want to take anymore antidepresants. So I am signing up for thi chi and I am going to try some DBT for my anxiety because although it hasnt happnened yet I know people can get hooked on xanaxs and I seen what addiction to xanaxs is like and I dont want that. Sorry I got to rambling.

Way to go!
So pleased you were able to sit down with your husband and explain things to him. Hopefully this will help him understand more. Ok, it might not be plain sailing all the time but you have made a start in good communication.  ((((((((( thunderbear ))))))))))

I'm really happy that you're feeling a little better today, and that you could sit your husband down and talk some things out. Keep us posted on how you're doing.
