kelly,
i totally agree with the others--DON'T GIVE UP ON
THE MEDS!!!! for what it's worth, i went through
a long period of death ideation. i'd wake up each
morning with horrible feelings of despondency. i
felt like i could not face the challenges that the
day would provide me with. when i started taking
paroxetine however, these feelings went away. i
always knew that my perspective on life was
irrational; i knew that i was just as capable of
accomplishing things as anyone else. the paxil
just helped me believe this even more; it made my
body and mind react accordingly.
have you tried paxil or any other ssri's?
do not give up! if your husband isn't being
supportive, find someone who will be. do you
attend a church? there are always helpful, caring
people to be found there.take care,
-z
