Hi Susan,
My doctor is a psychiatrist. He's said a couple of things to make me feel like I'm wasteing my time with him, but I the waiting time to get into see him was 3 months, and I really don't want to wait that long to see another dr.
I've never heard of cbt before, and that may actually help me. I know when someone says something to me I usually take it in a negative way and end up loseing sleep over it. I will ask the doctor on feb 12.
As far as support, I have none. I look after my dad for a few hours a day as he has had strokes and can't do things for himself anymore. My mom passed 6 years ago (yesterday) and my boyfriend gets mad when I spend so much time in bed. We end up arguing 75% of the time.
My kids are great. I have twins that are 15, and they help out soo much. They clean when the house looks messy, and they make most of the meals. I also have a son whose 21 that has recently moved out into his own home with his girlfriend. I try my best to make sure everyone is happy, but I hear of other parents taking their kids to the movies or sledding, and I have never done that, nor do I think I will ever be able to.
I'm willing to try other meds, but after the fuss with the phychiatrist to stay on meds, I'm not sure if he'll want me to try anything else. If worse comes to worse, I have a stash of zoloft that I can go back on. Iwas taking it for 14 years, and it was only the last year that I started haveing side effects. My psych told me that the person I was while taking zoloft is someone hiding from the real world. I thought it was pretty good, I was happy most of the time, and I never cried.
Well, without me going on and on, thanks for taking the time to write me, its nice talking to someone willing to listen.
