Hiya, really feeling bad now. I have gone into the nothing zone.....I want to talk rationally, but I can't. I had 2 NY resolutions, one was joining this forum and one was coming off Prozac Dr said I could try it but he felt I had enough insight to know to go back if I need to ).

I wanted to see if my headaches were caused by the przac (been on it 3 years) and tey are still there. And I need to come off it to get a sexual life again - my partner is finding it so hard to cope with that.

I am stressing out about the forum, worrying about stuff and I had a funeral on Friday, migraines and blankness. You see, I cant leave it for days because you are all so kind to me and I don't want you to feel negative towards me. Each night I lay there thinking of what to say on here, what to reply and I developed the idea of an old wooden broom brushing autumn leaves away from the path every time the thoughts popped in - it is helping a bit.

I wanted to come off the tablets to see if I was better underneath. I dont feel like I care enough anymore to think about it, I layed in bed this morning til 11. 30 just nothing, blank and aimless thoughts of what I would post today. I am really worn down now and pressing keys on autopilot so I need to stop -- thanks for listening......Poppet

Poppet, ask your doctor if you could try Wellbutrin. It's not supposed to have so many sexual side effects.

Have you reduced your Prozac? Maybe that's why you're feeling so low.

Don't worry about posting or what to say. There's no pressure here. Read and if you feel a reply coming, then post. If not, don't worry. But you can always post your feelings and thoughts. No one is going to judge you. If they do, then shame on them!

{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{Poppet}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} Hope you're not "allergic" to hugs. Have I done the right thing ?

Hi, SeptemberMorn, Have I done the right thing ? nice to meet you (sound all posh there!) first off I'm not allergic to hugs Have I done the right thing ? - I am always open to them, I don't come from a 'huggy' family but have grown to believe that they really are necessary. I am always cautious about offering virtual hugs, just in case they trigger things for ppl ( even if they aren't 'in the flesh' some ppl could feel invaded) - now I am thinking hugs could be a good thread for discussion hehehe.
The trouble with me is I have all the depressed thinking, meaning of life and self stuff to talk about, then I have loads of other stuff that is more about others views,etc and how do ppl feel about different things going on. Oh, and also everyday stuff - is there any room for that ? so much in me to offer.
I am seeing my dr on Tues so will discuss Wellbutrin with him - thanks for that. I am more and more thinking that my current state is down to the withdrawal of the prozac, but then I go into all this stuff about wanting to try and be 'pure' me - no drugs.
But then I think - loads of ppl take other meds for health probs longterm. Its just the stigma we still have about mental illnesses, isn't it ? I have it when it applies to me, but in others I care and would support the use of any med that helps !!!!
I appreciate your thoughts of 'shame on them' if they judge me - when I push that depressed stuff away, I don't think any of you would - I judge me the worst of all !!
(((((((((((((((((((SeptemberMorn))))))))))))))))))))
I love the mornings in sept - but they have a sad edge to me......poppet

poppet, please don't take this the wrong way. You remind me of me. worried about other's thoughts and rejection. It is such a hard thing to get over. Wanting to be unconditionally loved and held close in the heart. Wanting to be cherished. All I can say is that it has gotten easier and that these feelings are not as strong for me as they used to be. It's easy for me and the rest of us to love you here.

Have I done the right thing ? belated b.day wishes, wise woman and thankyou so much. I know you are going through grief right now and I appreciate that you took the time to say what you did.
I don't take what you said the wrong way at all, I feel even more supported knowing you feel similar to me. I sometimes think my need to be cherished for who I am is like a bottomless pit - I want to get the impossible.
When you say its easy for you and the rest of us to love me here - thats just about the most lovely thing anyone can say ! Have I done the right thing ? can I give you a hug ?
