Honore,
Your encouragement means a lot.
When it comes down to it I don't see much alternative to taking it right now. I am just listless without it.I have been patient for a long time-with Emsam and all the rest. Although EMSAM seems to have helped my mood the lack of motivation to do ANYTHING is slowly eating away at the gains in my mood.
What the heck can I do if stimulants don't even work for me? It used to be that they worked some but the trade off was an irritable, non-social mood. They just don't help much anymore.
How long have you been on Abilify?
Have you already written out your situation in depth-if so I can do a search so you don't have to re-hash it.I had NO social anxiety on Abilify. Made me very nice and patient with my daughter.
I have a desire to help others, go to school, I am intelligent and I feel I will rot in this damn house! I just want to be able to do something!
I have graet empathy with those who are depressed, have anhedonia or any mental/emotional troubles but because I know what I am capable of I can't help but view myself as having a character flaw. Why is it so hard to move?! It practically hurts in some inexplicable way.
I feel like I am fighting an invisible demon.
I know there are no simple answers but many here understand my venting.
Thanks
Kaye
