It has been a week that I have been feeling better, not quite normal yet but hopefully getting there. I have been taking Effexor now for a month and I guess it is doing its job. I am definetely not as depressed but anxiety is still quite high although there are moments when I am free of both; that is surely a step in the right direction.
As soon as I have a good day I start thinking of going back to work and that sends me back but one day at a time I will get there. I still shake a lot and have trouble with small conflicts but it is getting better.
I wanted to write this because I have posted here so often on how bad I was doing, now that it is better I wanted to share with all the people who have supported me over the last few months and thank them for their encouragement and also to let you all know that there is hope!
I know I am not out of the woods yet but at least there is a light through the trees.
I believe this is a wonderful forum filled with beautiful people to whom I wish the best and especially some peace.
Thanks for this!

It is always very satisfying when you overcome a bout of depression. Like a marble slab lifted from your shoulders. Wonderful feeling. Glad you have overcome your depression.
Thanks for this!
