Hi again!

Thanks a lot for your support! Sorry I was vague about what my problem was. My problem has to do with the fact that after the break-up of a relationship that lasted 12 years and meant everything to me (it lasted from the time I was 22 until when I was about to turn 34 - which means that it took all my twenties!), I've had two relationships that could, in a way or another, be described as abusive. First, it took me 3 years to actually do something and get away. Eventually I did, and I'm really proud of myself for it. Now, there's this other person. Again, not the right one for me, but still I think I'm stuck to a wrong relationship. During my previous relationtion (not the one that lasted 12, which was just perfect except for the fact that he left me!), sometimes I felt "strong" and I could make lots of changes in my life. Other times, however, I felt "weak", so I had to just accept what was given to me. For some reason, now I understand those "weak" moments as my being clinically depressed. My last bout was when my present partner lost his job and I was faced with the responsibility of supporting him, considering that my situation money-wise wasn't that good, either, and considering that I did NOT believe in that relationship. All that put together dragged me into the toughest depression I've ever had. Paxil did wonders to me, and now, on Wellbutrin, I still feel "strong". Anyway, that's my story, or part of it. Thanks a lot for the interest and for the support! You're a great bunch!
