About Me
I am a working mom who has a young son and a wonderful husband. Also, I have suffered from depression for most of my life, just got put back on meds and I am on Cymbalta 120 mg. Just trying it out to see if it works for me, the side effects kind of suck so far though. Also has been hard struggling with finances lately. But, we seem to be pulling through it.
Interests
I love being outdoors and being with my family. Being a mom is the most fun I've ever had, my little boy cracks me up all the time and it's amazing watching him grow up. My husband is a wonderful, supportive man who treats me like a queen, I couldn't ask for a better person to spend my life with.

Close Asthma
I've suffered from Asthma my whole life and have been athletic pretty much my whole life. it is a constant battle, but I am trying to find a way to do and deal with both :)
Treatments
Close Depression
Type: Clinical (Major) DepressionI have dealt with depression my whole life and it runs pretty heavily in my family. I have felt suicidal and even attempted before, but I am finally on the path to feeling better. The wierd thing is that since I found out I was pregnant two years ago and stopped taking my meds, I haven't needed to get back on them. It was scary at first to not be on medication, but I feel pretty damn good nowadays and I have a great little family that keeps me going.
Treatments
- Paxil Working / Worked
- It did work for me, but the withdrawals were horrible! Now off of it. Never want to be back on it because of the withdrawals, i.e. nausea, suicidal thoughts, etc.
- Positive Thinking Working / Worked
- I'm now using my family as inspiration and it is great, it has been a great motivational tool for me.
- Wellbutrin Working / Worked
- I liked Wellbutrin, it helped balance me out with the Paxil. I didn't have any side effects with it. I'm now off of it and feeling fine.
- Physical Exercise Working / Worked
- I try to get 30 minutes of exercise in a day and it has helped me SO much. Sometimes it is hard to make myself do it, but them I realize it is not only helping me feel better, but it's helping my overall health as well. It's worth it!
Open Career Changes
Feeling pretty sick of the job I;m in, looking to hopefully start a new job in a couple of months that's totally different. Excited and anxious, as I hate the one I'm in....
Open Food Allergies
Type of allergy: Other FoodsI've had allergies all of my life, even used to get allergy shots every week as a small child, they didn't really work. Just found out a year go that I have a very rare allergy to alcohol. Not topically, I just can't ingest it. Just wondering if anyone else suffers from this.
Treatments
- Allergy Shots Not Working
- These didn't really help me when I was a child so I haven't tried them as an adult.
- Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Working / Worked
- Avoiding alcohol as my doctor said it could kill me to try to drink again. Kinda sucks :(
- EpiPen Working / Worked
- Haven't had to use it thankfully.
Open Migraine Headaches
suffer from cluster headaches and have a headache for probably close to a year now. it varies from day to day. just looking for others out there suffering as well, since no one seems to understand me.
