Yes, U of M as in Michigan. Your words of encouragement are so appreciated. This chronic condition is really defeating at times. I have always been so independant and very determined. I feel as though I am beginning to lose my fight to want to continue this battle for the right medication. For so long, I have searched, certain that there must be something that would work, but the optimistic person I used to be is fading away.
Somehow, it doesn't seem to be even part of the organic part of the depression, but rather part of the emotional part of dealing with constant dysthymia and keeping up with my family and my life.But anyway, thanks Bob,I really felt validated by your comment about the Dr.'s 80% is "good enough" and that my attempting to change meds was a good move. Best wishes to all. Riley
