I need to say thank you first of all. Last night was truly one of the worst nights of my life, and I've been throguh some very bad situations. I have never felt that scared for my own well being, and if it hadn't been for my kid's being at home with me I'm scared to think of what I could have done. The pain was so intense!
This morning I called my Dr and have an appointment at 2:00 today to get on a diffrent anti-depressant. Other than that I don't know what else to do right now. I'm not sleeping well at all, I sleep for a couple of hours, and wake up and can't go back to sleep, so I know part of my problem is being exhausted, along with the depression. I just feel that I don't really have the energy right now to do anything. I'm fighting today to keep believing that the clouds will clear tomorrow. Please for anyone who reads this my friends call me 'Chelle, say a prayer for me. This is not something I would ask if I didn't sincerely need it. Posted on 05/09/08, 11:05 am |

I've been there. Hang on.
As I said on your other post, you would be surprised how many of us that are feeling good now, once felt that way. As a matter of fact, yesterday I thanked a member who's journal helped me through a similar time.

Some antidepressants can worsen depression, I ran into that myself and sleeplessness is quite common with anxiety and depression and medication. I hope your doctor was able to help you. I think one of the reasons that I didn't have sleep problems is that my job is very physically demanding, so I get a good work out during the work week. Most doctors, therapists and even the "self help" sites tell you that physical exercise helps in getting a good nights sleep. I think it also gets your mind off whats troubling you too!
Take the time to read up on foods to avoid that are known to inhibit sleep and try to form good "sleep habits" (no reading or watching TV, do that in another room). Hope all works out well for you (((HUGS)))
