In reply to EVERYONE! I need anew drug, posted by afatchic on May 8, 2000, at 20:01:11
People in stores usually deserve it.
Men need a good snapping every once in a while.
What's wrong with being fat, frigid and witchy??Only my opinion.
> I've been so impressed with the intellect and knowledge displayed on this board. I need your recommendations. I've suffered from dysthimia all my life with lapses into major depression. I inherited the condition from my dad who self-medicated with alcohol until it killed him. I finally got up the courage and talked to a doctor I trusted. It really does help working in the medical field when you can get to know the doctors as people first. Here's my history: I started on trazadone in 1989, it took about 3 weeks but the results were wonderful. I felt "normal". I was able to experience happiness. After 4 years on trazadone, I had gained about 40 pounds even though I was a "health freak". I thought the weight gain was worth the emotional well-being but, being in the Air Force, the weight gain was ruining my career. I reluctantly switched to prozac, which worked just as well for me. I stopped having orgasms and stopped wanting to have sex but I didn't learn that it was caused by the Prozac until I'd taken it for 5 years (great for a marriage). That brings me up to the present. I've been on wellbutrin now for about a month and it doesn't seem to be working. I have noticed that I don't have much of desire to drink alcohol but that's the only positive change. Otherwise, I am so irritable! People in stores make me angry for petty things and I've been snapping at my husband and son. Does anyone have any advice for me? I'm looking for a drug that allows me to be happy, doesn't make me fat, doesn't make me frigid, and doesn't make me a witch. Anybody?
