The last several days have been really rough. I'm still trying to get through yet another failed relationship and episode of depression. Last December the man who said he wanted to marry me ended the relationship suddenly. He said he wanted us to just be friends. I've gone through the anger and the feeling of rejection, but now, I'm missing him terribly. I haven't heard from him in a few weeks and it's killing me. I've tried contacting him but he hasn't responded.

I think this trauma has rendered my meds ineffective. I started taking them in early January and I'm yet to see any significant change. So I'm still struggling to get out of bed in the mornings and to do the things I need to do daily. My friends and family have been supportive, but right now I'm feeling really lonely and crappy.

Hi Maria ~ Keep taking your meds!!! Alot of times, they take up to 6 weeks to start working - so PLEASE keep taking them, okay?

I'm so sorry you're hurting so. Men -- sometimes you just can't understand them. It sounds to me like he cared for you TOO MUCH and he just got scared. It wouldn't surprise me if he did contact you at some point. Just give him time. And if he doesn't -- then he wasn't the kind of man you wanted anyway. You don't want someone who would say these nice things to you and run scared, right? You want a MAN'S MAN!!! You will find one, I promise.

God bless you dearheart -- and many hugs are coming your way!

(((((HUGS)))))) Lee

Thanks Lee. Guess what?? I got a text from him today. It made me feel a little better, but it's awful lonely not hearing from him as often as I used to. I think he ran scared too, but in time we'll see what happens. In the meantime, I promise I'll keep taking my meds. I just wish the dull, blank feeling in my head would go away.

Hi again Maria ~ Since your meds haven't kicked in yet, why not call your doctor and tell him. It seems like you should feel something by now, although SOME medications take about 6 weeks to take effect. Your might be one of them. But it wouldn't hurt to call and ask. Give him a call and see what they say. Hugs, Lee

Here's to an end to pain and misery, and feelings that run and race out of control to our detriment.

Lee is right--if he's worth his salt, he'll be in touch, and as you've stated, you got a text message. Take care to mind his motivations, however--make sure he's got your best interests at heart and not only his own.

Best of luck to you--hope it turns out how you want.

Thanks Nola. Thanks Lee. I've been thinking about asking my doc about the meds, but fear has kept me from doing it. I'm just afraid he'll up the dosage. I used to take Lexapro and the side effects were terrible then it stopped working after I took antibiotics and painkillers for a few days. Now I'm on 50mg/day of setraline. I still get nausea and yawning a few hours after taking it (which I think should've passed by now); so I suspect something's not right. I'll call him on the weekend though (he only works on Saturdays) and hope for the best.
