Hi. I've been considering joining this society for a while, and today I just really really need to talk to someone who understands and I can't talk to anyone else, so I thought I'd butt in here if that's okay.
I've had depression, anxiety and anger management problems (apparently - I personally think the ang. man. was a misdiagnosis!) for three years now. I was on meds and counselling for quite a while and it seemed to get better so I was taken off both - but now it's all got bad again, I've started SH again and it's all going to hell. And I can't even talk to anyone because I came THIS close to losing every friend I had last time, there is no way I can put them through all that again; so I'm trying to do this on my own and it's harder than I expected.
I've been to the doctor's and she put me back on Fluoxetine, but it hasn't had time to take effect yet. I've just been for a follow-up appt today and to be honest I just feel like crap. I always seem to get it in my head that once I see the doctor, everything will be magically better because I'm making positive steps and getting help - but nothing's changed, in fact I feel worse and I don't really feel like I can cope.
