I am so sorry that I missed this thread yesterday! Poor Donna, but it does sound as if she is doing what she needs to do to get back on track.

I have been there, done that, so I can so relate to what she is going through.

Please let her know that we are thinking about her, and praying for things to get better for her soon. Many prayers and positive thoughts coming from Indiana.

Poor Donna!! I know that not having a job makes you feel this way, I've been in that situation myself. I'm glad she went to the clinic for help, and I hope she will soon feel better. She must miss her kitties terribly!

She's in my thoughts!!

Donna just now called me and she sounded like she was doing a little better than she sounded yesterday. She's still tired and worn out, but I think she was a little more upbeat than yesterday. Because of her A.D.D. and her other problems, her social worker believes that she can get assistance to help. Donna is hopeful that she can leave the hospital on monday and come home and be with her Mooshoo and and her other furbabies. Donna also has PT withdrawl and can't wait to be back online!

AHHHHH~~~~ That is a relieving up date, Thank-You DavidP

Hopefully, she will continue to get more rest and will be feeling much better now that a Social worker has stepped in to assist her elibility.

Perhaps someone can arrange to have Mooshoo brought up to the Hospital for a little Purr visit, it's worth a try. (twists social workers arm)

I will keep Donna in my Prayers. Her PT withdrawel must be horrible!!!!!!

I just got off the phone with Donna. She's sounding better than I thought she would. She asked ME how I was doing when she called! I said "no I'm worried about you, forget about me, whats going on with you?" She's such a wonderful and caring person.... even when she has her own personal crisis she's worried about others! She has gotten back her sense of humor and is optimistic about getting some sort of aid.

Apparently Sunday was pretty bad, with her searching the sunday classifieds and finding nothing available. She thankfully realized that she needed help and drove herself to the hospital Sunday afternoon. They are currently tweeking her meds, but she wants off her current one and wants to try something totally different since its not been working for months (and it has been giving her serious vertigo)

She says she misses her cats something awful. She's especially missing Moo. Anyone know where to find a stuffed animal of a sphynx cat? She would love something like that to hold onto in the hospital. but chances are it would arrive after she's realeased! She really is looking forward to being released very soon.... that all depends on how well she responds to any new meds, etc.

Please continue sending prayers her way. They seem to be working. I was seriously worried about her, and am so glad to hear her sounding much more positive than the last time I spoke to her a week ago.

rg_girlca,

Gee Phred, you forgot to post one of your special prayers

I guess you've got to "belong" to get one of those. But that's okay. REALLY no big deal. I don't sweat the small stuff anymore, and THAT'S small stuff.

All of everyone's good wishes meant the world to me.

((((HUGS))))

It's great to finally have a diagnosis, now you know what you have to work with, and can finally get BETTER!!!! Celexa is what I have taken for Major Depressive Illness, and it has helped me tremendously. It wasn't until I recently was diagnosed Bi-Polar II that I had to add my Lamictal. (Apparently it is common for those with BP-II to be mis-diagnosed with Major Depression for up to 10 years before getting the full diagnosis. That's how long it took for me.) Like you, I also fail every test for ADD as well!

Anyway, knowing what you need and taking the correct medications will really help you!

If you ever need to chat, just PM me!

Hugs,
Kim

Kim,

I've been to doctors for years for depression. Even the most expensive shrink I had when I did have insurance, never mentioned ADD. That had to be at least 10 years ago.

I've heard alot of good things about Celexa and so far, even though I've only been on it 4 days, it seems to be working well. I don't have any vertigo and I'm actually on a lower dose of Celexa (25 mg/day) than that of Paxil (37.5 mg/day).
