Hi,
Can't really offer you any advice but just wanted to say that your situation sounds very much like my own. I became depressed again in June 2001 and like you it came out of nowhere, everything was going really well in my life (unles of course I'm in denial which I'm sure a psychotherapist would have me believe). Since then I went through hell for two years trying to find a drug that would take me out of hell and the last year or so I've been about 50% better on 40mg of Seroxat, however I still have some somatic symptoms of the depression and I tend to tire very easily in the evening. For instance I'm supposed to be going to a christmas lunch this afternoon, most people will carry on partying into the night but there's no way I can do that, I'll just have my meal, two bottles of budweiser and leave because I know my limits.
Anyway, like you and a lot of other people on this board I'm still searching.
Can I ask you if you had stopped taking your effexor, wellbutrin etc prior to 2001 when you got depressed again or did the medication just poop out?
Denise
