Me too. Dysthymic disorder is my primary diagnosis. Willow, yes, dysthymia is the same thing. So, dyscat, how long have you been depressed? I can trace it back to age 9 pretty clearly. I guess that's 25 years.

I'm from Tennessee dyscat
I have apparently had dysthmia since childhood. It is in combination with PTSD and OCD. It is managed beautifully with one medication. Lexapro is my magic pill.

Willow,
Wow, that sounds like a heavy load. I'm glad to hear you've found a 'magic med'. I haven't found one yet. Im currently on Paxil and Concerta. Seems to be working, so we'll see. You're from Tennessee? Kewl. So, what kind of things are you interested in?

dyscat... i hope you can find the med that helps you.
I know my DX sounds like a lot. I don't feel disabled from it though. I must have only mild cases. The medication really does help. More than I realized it could. I had to try several different cocktails to find the right med though.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
