Awww, thanks! I've just been going through one of my hectic times at work. 12 hours a days for days on end AND we were short a person so it was worse than usual. We finally finished early Friday and I was exhausted, but another group was running really behind so I helped them finish up. My boss seemed very happy with me and took me out for Mexican food and margaritas after work. Then I just laid around all weekend. So I'm feeling much better now, but still ready for an early bedtime tonight - so I'll have to check back in later. Thanks for thinking of me!

12 hour days? wow that's crazy! mmm margaritas :) I need to be busy like you, then probably I won't be depressed and as anxious anymore. Glad you're doing well!!

I'm not always busy like that. Actually its either really busy or really slow - then its boring.
So what kind of meds are you on? For me taking the wrong ones (or none at all) and my depression and anxiety are unbearable. I can barely manage to get out of bed. Maybe you're in need of a med change?

I take abilify, zyprexa (both antipsychotics), and lexapro (antidepressant). Sometimes I take ativan too.
I just went down on the abilify, bc (I know it sounds silly) but I feel like other people are on just one antipsychotic so why should I be on two? Does that make me like, extra crazy? I think I should talk to my pdoc about this. Like ask her if other people are on 2 or more also. I think I would feel better knowing that there are.
I know I've been moody lately tho. Like I'll post on here that I'm upset about avoiding things. Then I feel better. But I only feel better until I try to go out and do something again, and fail. that is really frustrating. So maybe I need a med change. Or maybe I just need more intensive therapy.
Thanks for the concern TC. You rock! And babblemail me any time, if you want.

Lexapro was one of the ones that didn't work for me at all. My current pdoc said its because I need a med that elevates the dopamine in my brain rather than just the seratonin, and Lexapro does that the least of all the SSRI's. Or something to that effect anyway, I don't remember it exactly. Anyway, I thought it might be something to look into if you want.
Thanks for the compliments! You rock too!
