Am I better or is this just me fooling myself?

Thanks everyone for your replies. It definitely helps to know you're not alone with the feelings we have. I seem to relax a little when I find out that I am not the only one having this type of symptom. I have recently started a support group and that is something to get me off my butt and out the door some mornings! It also is to work on self esteem, stress mgt, etc. Strange that I do find it helpful now because when I first started all I wanted was for it to get better fast...now I know that isn't the way it is supposed to work. You have to continually work on the things that are wrong to get to a positive outcome. I have also began meditiation...sometimes helps sometimes not as much. Just to sit still for 20 min. with myself is an accomplishment, and a relief. I hope things are well for all.

Rayne, Concentrate on the progress! You are doing well :) Have you started the Depression Diary? This is a great exercise to get into and may help you pinpoint the areas that are bothering you. Also Use stretching and exercise to relieve stress and negative thoughts. Relax your body and you mind and move forward. Hope this helps, Josie ___________________________________ The Depression Center Support Team.

Hey Starrydreamer...I don't know how long you have been coming to this site, but know that you are definitely NOT alone in any of this. Reading the posts will help you understand that what you feel, thing or the way you act at any particular time is what many of us have gone through as well. It is refreshing knowing that there are so many kindered spirits here...all working to get themselve's well, but helping others...many without knowing it. peace to you

Rayne...glad to hear at least the financial burden has been reduced for you. As for the meds...it does take time for you to get the full benefit, but don't be discouraged...be honest with your dr and together you will find the right mix... I truly understand the dead feeling...I have that at times...mostly flat...non-expressive...just seemingly wandering through life...pointed in one direction and going that way for lack of inspiration to think for myself...I do have hopes though that things will get back on track. I had a bit of a set back, but this will be for another time...now is for you! Take care of yourself and don't rush things. In time, all will right itself with the world (hopefully). Peace to you!

I just cannot put my finger on it. I feel like I am getting better but I still feel "dead" inside. I don't feel as down and depressed as I was a couple weeks ago (I frightened myself with the degree of depression I had reached) but I still don't feel right. Does that make any sense? My Dr. has changed my meds now from the effexor to cipralex and I haven't seen the real effect yet as it is too soon. I wish this feeling would just go away. I can't describe it. I feel better and more able to cope but still just....down. I am trying to think positively and not be quick to anger or anything but I still have this strange feeling. Anybody have this themselves? I have even had good news today...my ins. company has reversed their decision and have decided to cover me for being off work for depression. This is a great thing as I have not had ANY money coming in since October/05 and things were getting wickedly tight. I wasn't sure where the money for my next mortgage payment was coming from let alone how I would pay for food. But as it turns out I don't have to worry about it now. ~sigh~ One thing off my plate.
