Chris,
Oh, feel free to vent! I don't know how I would survive without it myself. I had to really force myself to seek a therapist out and then commit to going each week this past year. I think that the harder it gets for us the more resistant we become to the talk therapy. It can be so incredibly...trying...in terms of relationships and our illnesses. Amazing how completely different our perceptions can be from our partners (and their families!) and it seems that there is no resolving it at times. I feel for what you are going through right now. My husband is not the greatest at communication in general and when I am in a bad place... It can be so hard. And my own guilt, shame, anxiety is so crippling. And I truly don't believe my husband understands it at all. Not that he is to blame for that. How could anyone on the outside really comprehend it? Not to the full degree. But many times I just sense he doesn't want to understand and could care less about making the effort to try.
I can't remember if Remeron worked at all for me, but I know I tried Abilify more than once because I really wanted it to work. I had a lot of faith in it because I had heard so many success stories- some from people I knew fairly well. Seroquel has been another one that has been very successful for many and I was hoping to have work for me. But, unfortunately my "stuff" has been too resistant and none of these helped me. Although, if you ever have problems with sleep, I do recommend seroquel for that purpose.
Have you started the Remeron yet?
