Jerry, it didn't make you look like a whiner. Your last post was full of information that made it much more possible to understand your situation.

There really is hope for you. The changes in meds that your pdoc suggests are something to give much consideration to.

I take abilify, a very small dose, and it's been extremely helpful. Made a huge differences for me.

Geodon is also a very good drug, which might work if you don't respond well to abilify.

I know it's incredibly hard to keep with it, when you've sunk into such a sense of hopelessness and how to change the situation has slipped away.

You can get it back, though. It's a one step at a time, one day at a time process.

Right now, the first few days and weeks seem too hard-- but it gets easier-- much much sooner than you would think. Not right away. The first efforts are not easy. I know. But it's so worth making them.

Do the med changes; and don't beat yourself up. Depression is something we all struggle with-- but it isn't inevitable. Things can get much better, unexpectedly. So don't give up.
