About Me
I'm a nursing student trying to redefine and improve my life. I'm suffering from depression for the second time and today was given a tentive diagnosis for PMDD. (PMS that kicks ass) I've never been a firm believer in medication or therapy, but I'm trying to keep an open mind and give it a chance.
Interests
Pottery, Yoga, Holistic Healing, Meditation, Mindfulness, Reading, Walking, Dogs, Comics, Board Games, Card Games, Traveling Across US, etc.

Support Groups
Close Depression
Clinically Depressessed. This is my second episode, my first occurred at 18-19. Seven years isn't too bad if this is my first relapse. Dr. told me today that my chances of relapse after this are much higher, but I can always hope this will be the last time.
Treatments
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Too Soon to Tell
- Just starting.
- Meditation Too Soon to Tell
- I'm going to start my yoga and mindfulness exercises agian. I have to get out of this funk.
- Positive Thinking Somewhat Helpful
- Prozac Too Soon to Tell
- Any words from that that have taken would be appreciated.
- Writing Somewhat Helpful
- It is what it is. It helps me define my feelings.
- Zoloft Somewhat Helpful
- Got me to a point but I had to quit because it made me angry.
Close Pre-menstrual Syndrome (PMS)
PMDD. My therapist has decided to treat me for this using medication in combination to continued therapy to help me gain control of my mood swings and bring me out of my depression.
Treatments
- Prozac Too Soon to Tell
- If anyone has taken, I'd love to hear how it works.
Open Infidelity
Please ask if you would like more information.
Open Fitness Goals
Just using exercise in general to help deal w/ my PMDD. It'd also kick butt if I turned into a lean mean fighting machine while I was at it.
