confessions of little turtle with love

I’m quite a bit like you I think little turtle, I’m compassionate, intelligent, sensitive and shy, but I don’t take crap from people (although sometimes.. a lot of times.. there’s so much crap in this world some of it hits us anyway )

What kind of person do you think I am?

What kind of person are you little turtle?

I trust you fuzzy...

I am an ok person

what am I unhappy about-----most everything...especially that I will be dying pretty soon...I am almost 87 yo...most on this forum probably don't want to hear any more from me...I see a lot of "evil" ....especially what is happening to young people...

What am I unhappy about?

Too much “stuff” to list...

Gggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

my friend desiree is having trouble...I think she may be having serious side effects from Prozac...I am worried

Little turtle, I think it's not from prozac. It's more like a complete brain shutdown when I can't push myself to do anything but hide in my bed to run away from the pain. I feel completely numb and paralysed. I have experienced this a few times before I was on prozac. Moreover, I was on prozac some 25 yrs back when I was in high school and I didn't get any side-effect. But then it didn't do any wonders for me either.

Hello.

I’m having serious side effects,

I was wondering about posting.

I’m in some sort of “crisis”

But it really doesn’t matter

I’m sorry Desiree that you also are struggling.

Other than the usual advice which I think we both know about. Sadly I can get help

Ha iPad self corrected

I sadly can’t help

So I’m of no further “use” to anyone

And I no longer even “care”

I’m sorry about the angry post

(Not about anyone. On pc)

What happened fuzzy?

what happened fuzzy ...can we help

I’m “just not doing well”

Maybe I’m “just” too “weak” to “cope” indefinitely with this cruel world, without medication (or effective therapy)



(Sorry about the possible triggering content

I’ll be “ok” (probably)

And sorry for “hijacking” this thread...

.......

PS maybe I’m as entitled to speak as anyone is. But that was NOT the message delivered by the PUS (parental units)

you can speak here fuzzy....you can say anything now right here..

How do you know it’s ok to speak

Is it “safe”

Thanks little turtle, I appreciate you and trust you (as much as I trust almost anyone that is)

Btw .. (deleted)

The medics irl won’t let me give a one minute history about my “rash” (which is linked to some abuse as well)

I tried with one GP to answer his question “what happened”

Big big mistake

Dare I say it

If I ever said it before... terrible terrible me

Grrrrrrrrrr

He was abusive

wow sounds very hurtful...

Yes, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

And another grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

i think that the change from spring to summer is very stressful...
and the weather has been really screwy this year...

most of what I learned as a doctor is now being questioned...
an example would be whether to use antipsychotic drugs to treat
first episode of psychosis...

I didn't give in to those administrations that were business oriented....
they bugged me over and over.....see everyone for 15 minutes...
every 15 minutes...that isn't what I think doctors should be doing..
I think it is wrong...it is harmful to us...we need help....real help...
not just 15 minutes and a pill....we are crying for help...we are sinking..
but there is hope....and the hope I am talking about is not in a pill...

I think there are so many causes of depression...so many ways to get
depressed....it doesn't make sense that every depression should be treated
with a pill...but that is what we have now...

What kind of hope little turtle?

good connections with others....where we are kind and work together...
and we need to tell our stories...what has happened...why we are unhappy..
and your boyfriend desiree...

I definitely haven’t found the 15 minutes (or less) and a pill at all helpful ... it has in fact been harmful, for me.

The hope that you’re talking about which isn’t in a pill.. what sort of hope is this little turtle?

I think Desiree asked you this and you answered it.

I’m also asking you, you can talk here.

I’m not into “judging” (ok maybe I do “judge” those who have harmed me.. I can’t help it. ....)

we need to very close with others...I am trying to be closer to my wife
and kids...but it is so hard for me...I am trying to avoid the 7 deadly habits that dr glasser talks about...and the 7 caring habits...
