Question

The last time I went ct, which was last month, I fought really hard, the depression was sooooo bad, and I was soooo exhausted, from trying to keep myself going thru all that hell, and the vitamins, and the baths, and no sleep, the RLS, OMG that is the worst, it actually burns. I cant take it. Well what kept me pushing on, was I kept holding onto the fact and the hope that the next day, I would feel better, i really couldnt take much more...but everyday, I didnt feel better, I just felt worst, it caused me to lose hope. I was sick, whether i took percs, and I was sick whether I didnt. I caved. Mainly because I was 3 weeks into ct, and I felt awful, I felt it was hopeless. I fear that same thing happening again. Makes you feel like you do all that suffering for nothing. After 3 weeks, I seriouly thought I would mentally feel better than I did. Doc ended up telling me that he thought I was bipolar, I didnt tell him I was in w/d. He based that diagnoses from me visiting him prior times, and sometimes being in tears. Well in any case he prescribed me "ZYPREXA". Does anyone know, if this is a anti-depressant??? I didnt take it, I was too afraid. Im just wondering if it would help with the depression at all. I know I need something. Im so confused as to where to start with all this mess, I have gotten myself into.

It is very hard, try and think about it logically. We do drugs and put our bodies through so much for years and years. It you really think about it, although 3 weeks was a hugeee accomplishment, in comparison to how long we use that is really still the beginning. Give it time, lots of time, and do things to make it easier  and less stressful for you. It isnt easy. It is a work in progress. i am 142 days today and i feel great but still have things and symptoms that pop up from time to time. Good luck!
