    I found a nice doctor, did I tell you guys that already? Shes signed me off for a month. Im 2 weeks into it, n the same amount of time into these new tablets- anti depressants/ anti panic thingies, I did not look them up this time because I simply dont want to know.


    ... but I dont feel any different.


    Im sleepy as f***, n Ive been going off the rails moody at people, crying a lot which is more than unusual- I never cry. Hurting myself and wanting to hurt myself more and more deeper n deeper just to get the same effect.


    These pills arent working, or maybe the s*** that Im feeling denotes that they are? I dont know whether this is situational or pill-related - Im being evicted, I just got rejected by someone I was really into, fell out with one of my best friends, and Braden, the alcoholic, crazy love of my life is back on the scene, so take your pick.


    Ugh /whine.

    Hey Eternity,


    Did you talk to your doc about the effects the pills are having on you? They may not be the right ones for you, and maybe need to be switched. With pills like that lots of times its a bit of trial and error till they find the right ones for you.

    as galadriel said the pills may not be the right ones for you if htey're making u feel that much worse....


    altho sometimes pills take a few weeks to kick in, so if iwere you i'd give it another week or two and if u still don't feel better get in conatct with ur doc and ask to change or something.

    If they're some sort of SSRI they take about 3 weeks to become effective. During that time people often feel "worse".


    And the other factors in your life would definitely have an effect on your mood. Hang in there a few weeks and things will start to look better!
