I’m here to find people that have the same problems that I do and to research and get opinions and advice. Also to give opinions and advice, I have alot of experience unfortunetely.
I'm just sick of being sick. I have major depression/clinical depression and anxiety. Oh, and a new diagnosis of borderline personality disorder. That last one didn't make me any "happier", so to speak. I have been through a trial of meds, none have been tolerable yet. I'm currently trying Paxil, Lamictal and Ativan. I wish there was one thing I could do to make this all go away...I miss me.
I am battling depression and anxiety everyday and especially during the night.

I am a 30 year old female from Maryland. I have Bipolar II that tends to be more depressive then manic. I often do not have time to go to a support group so I felt that this could be some comfort for me.
I am bi-polar and I feel all alone all the time.
I actually am Unipolar…Bipolar without the extreme manic highs. I have depression quite a bit, & am living in a situation I am having a hard time dealing with anymore.
I have depression and anxiety attacks. When I was little there was abuse and as a adult there is abuse. It seems like start feeling better and then something happens. Does people with Depression ever get off the medication? It doesn’t really matter who connects me.
i suspect that my wife suffers from bipolar disorder, however it is a very soar subject w/her including depression. she gets very angry if i hint or suggest that she may be derpessed or even worse that she could be bipolar. she has already been diagnosed by her new ob/gyn as being full blown menopausal. yet from what i gathered from her recent visit she did not tell the doctor the whole story and therefore is only being treated for menopause. i love my wife very much and i want the best treatment for her, but she refuses to admit to her long history of battling this mental disease and most recently it has manifested itself in a very long manic episode which in turn has now caused her much remorse and now wishes that she was dead. she was very delusional during her manic episode and refused to believe what everybody advised her to do espcially me, her husband. it seemed the more i told her the facts the angrier she got and when her work associates and friends would tell her the same thing i told her she would at least listen to them but still refuse to believe them. i need to learn from other bipolar sufferers or spouses of bipolar sufferers how they have handled like situations and i want to keep the dialogue on a very “positive” note. i do hope and pray that there are people who have had similar situations like mine who can carefully and lovingly understand my plight and most importantly my wife’s struggle with this disease.

Hi, my name is Ruby & I have been in treatment for major depression & anxiety. I am concerned of the long term side effects with the Rx’s I take & I have been looking for a support group.
Depression has been apart of my life all of my life. I’ve been on all kinds of medications but I still have a dark cloud over me all the time. I’m hoping to interact with people that are just like me and to maybe see if there is hope for me. I just want to have a little happiness in my life .
My night terrors began after 3 yrs. of no sleep due to a home invasion while all my family was at home sleeping. The P.T.S.D. is what I had a full break down over. Had, until no sleep, been copeing with the domistic violance in my family, and the armed robbies on my jobs. I didn’t not work at any places that served alochal, or bars of any kind. My life was in danger often because of my ex-husbands temper, and his extended families drinking & temper. The Texas Dr.'s would not even discuss P.T.S.D. while the work nor home dangers were hapening. Why? They would only put me on Med.'s that made me sucidual, or dangerous (the uppers) mostly trying to defend myself against physical abuse. The night terrors lasted for 21 yrs. Not much real rest during that time. Had to get off med.'s by myself during the times I was still living unsafe. About yr. 2000 my 30 yr. old son stopped drinking and his temper no longer needed my home for room & board. Because I was not a malitary, police, or fireman, I found that no Texas Dr.'s wanted to discuss P.T.S.D. even while I was in danger. Why is that. Pills didn’t stop the last 7 weapons in my face one night while making a sales call in a Houston privite home. And the downers=pills made me nearly kill myself, because I was single and needed to work. I felt like everything was to be only bipoler or a person couldn’t receive real help. You tell me.
