Feeling depressed about Allergies

by mgsf94520, Apr 14, 2008 02:38AM
I am so glad I found this website as I have been told by doctors, that my fatique, inability to think, confusion, achiness, coughing and sneezing for hours on end was all in my mind. A psychiatrist had me on Prozac and when I continually told him that I wasn;t depressed I was ill, he told me theat my depression was causing my illness. I am see an allergist and I get from him is try some flonase and an inhaler. I am very confused as to why I feel so lousy and very few people can relate as they think you are a hypochondriac
