For those of you who have come out of a depression?
Question:
I am bipolar and taking Celexa, along with mood stabilizers
Answers:
I have been depressed for the last couple of years. This time last year I met the love of my life and he helped me overcome my depression all together. I didnt need meds when I was with him. He was all the medicine I needed. That is until he got killed in febuary of this year. As you could imagine I am torn to shreds. I was a total mess after this. I still am really but I am slowly trying to come back up out of the "black hole" . I have been taking wellbutrin for about four months now. I had to start taking SOMETHING or I was going to lose it.
hi, I came out of a depression but I did so without medication. Everyone seemed to think I needed to be on it, and eventually I started to think I did too. But it was against everything I have ever believed in. It took a lot of hard work. but when you are not surrounded by the depression you are no longer depressed. It's the constant thoughts of knowing how sad we feel, and the memories we have of what causes us to feel sad. but when your life is consumed of things that make you feel good and forget how sad you really are you slowly feel like you want to be happy. I think my biggest problem was that I didnt want to be happy, i said I did, and would pray for it but I never really wanted it, until I realized i deserved it. I hope this has helped you a little bit. take care
