Even better, however, it:
>
> * increased motivation; I actually ENJOYED getting out and doing things. I was sociable. I wanted a life again and made steps toward that end (exercising, school, considering job options, etc.)
> * decreased anxiety; in fact, the worries and anxieties that sometimes controlled my life in the past just didn't seem very important to me anymore. Everything felt "controllable."
> * increased libido; I hadn't had much of a sex drive in years...literally. Not only did it reappear, it was fanf***ingtastic!
> * decreased brain fog; I felt smart and self-confident again. I could think clearly and not feel as though I was continually searching for words.
> * increased self-esteem; for the first time in years, I actually felt good about "me"
> * decreased sadness; yes, I had my moments of sadness, sometimes even tears, but not nearly as it had been previously.
>
> Most importantly, I felt joy again. I was happy. I laughed out loud. I wanted to live life. In short, I felt better than I had in a very, very long time. Obviously, the depression had lifted.

You mean there are medications that can actually make you feel that much better. I am having one helluva a time with the medication I'm currently taking because I think it is actually making my depression worse. I thought I was going to choke on the pain I was feeling this morning it was so intense. I cried, screamed, ranted and raved, and now I just feel completely numb. This is not like me as I just exist most of the time with no emotions. I am fast losing hope that I will ever find anything that will work for me. I so need to get well, if not for my sake, the sake of my children. I feel so guilty because I am not the nurturing mother they need and deserve. As I am writing this, another crying jag is coming on. I often wonder if they wouldn't just be better off without me. That way maybe my husband could find someone that could do all the things that need to be done and love my children. I am as about as worthless a human being as there is on the planet right now. I am sorry to vent this way in your thread, but I could not believe that anyone could have this kind of response to a medication. I hope you find yourself again.
