PT prayers and thoughts for Donna

[moosmom]

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).
