Hey WAYNE,
I was interested in that song by Marmalade called Reflections of My Life-you were talking about. Is it in stores, or is it an oldie but goodie? In conjunction with the meds-I love to listen to music like that:-)

> > Oh sure, while I'm more than happy to talk to anyone about my lex fix - the whole being suicidal thing isn't common knowledge. I'm not really sure I'll ever recover. Speaking to my mother on the phone the other day, it was interesting to find that she mentioned 4th grade as the onset, which I agreed with. I guess I see it as more of a chronic thing that I'm glad I've learned some more effective ways to manage. I'm not sure I would have had the strength to keep trying this stuff if it lex had gone as badly for me as pax and Zoloft had gone for you. I'm actually on 20mgs of lex - 10 just wasn't doing it, but I've always had a high tolerance for meds, alcohol, etc.

> > This is getting a bit addictive for me - but I recently dropped the head nodding therapist who was convinced that there must be a root to my problem. My response was to ask how anyone with half a brain could go through this world without being depressed. Anyway, it's an exchange of time I guess and I've found this quite a bit more productive. The therapist was very hesitant to say anything about the medication. I'm not one to think that you have to have been there to be of use, but it seems like she could have said something besides asking a bunch of useless rhetorical questions.

> Hi Alexis, thats a pretty name!!!! Glad to know you!!!! This is also my last post for the day. After paxil and zoloft I was scared to try lexapro. In fact one of the shrinks wanted me to try these horse pills 3 times a day. I said no thanks strike 3 time for a new shrink. The lex is a tiny pill but I was really scared. I have a low tolerance for meds and I take about 7.5mg and have been as high as 10mg. But I had no choice but to take it. A lot of people refuse meds!!! I just have to believe they never felt that overwhelming pain that I did. I have also not read that book since I was a kid it just stood out for some reason. There is also this song by Marmalade called Reflections of My Life. I have heard it thousands of times and never got tired of hearing it. Its a ballad for depressed people I guess. Would have never thought that song would have meaning in my life. GOD BLESS!!!!!
