    About Me

    I'm 24 years old. I have a beautiful 3 year old son (autistic)and the world's best husband. It sounds perfect but in that home there lives a mother/wife who has depression. I don't remember what it feels like to be normal. I in a way have amnesia when it comes to my feelings I don't remember who I was. I want to feel happy. I want to go into public and not feel everyone watching me with discust.I want to better help my son. I want to want to clean my house. I want to not worry everytime my husband leaves the house that he is going to die. Same with my some. Most of all I want to be able to look in the mirror and not want to kill myself.

    Interests

    I love to do bead work but I have carpel tunnel in both hands.Photography. The other interests that I use to like and want to again are books, writng poetry, painting. I don't remember the other interests.

      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      Three years ago I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy. That's when it all started. I had post partum depression, I can't even remember how it feels to be happy. I have a husband whose supportive but doesn't understand and a son who is autistic. I have a community doc (nun) and no insurance to get any real help.

      Treatments

      Celexa Working / Worked
      I am currently taking this one and it helps a lot. I'm awake for more than 6 hours a day. Still no energy but it's a start.
      Effexor Not Working
      My brain was going mad and my body was on strike (exhausted).
      Lexapro Not Working
      I took 14 pills one night before I stopped myself and got help.
      Prozac Not Working
      I don't remember how I felt but it didn't help.
      Psychotherapy Considering
      I think therapy is good, but the one I had said I was contradicting myself and not making sense so I stopped. I have no insurance to find a new one.
      Trazodone Working / Worked
      I am currently taking this and another one that help a little. It helps with extreme paranoia.
      Writing Not Working
      I currently can't remember things, so I forgot to write. When I did write it didn't help because it was just like saying it in my head. I never feel better because nothing happens.
      Zoloft Not Working
      I was always tired and couldn't get out of bed unless forced.
