Thank you both for the words of wisdom. I had my thyroid checked last November, but since then (May) my sister has been dx'd with Graves Disease so I probably should have it all ran. My mother also has hypothyroidism I believe.
I know I have been taking too much medicine wise. I just feel like I'm going to burst into a fit of rage if I don't take something to calm me. As with anything you build up a resistance and I think thats what is happening to me.
Thank you!

Hoping you hang in there until your appt.
That much Xanax will certainly add to your depressive disorder. Hopefully, they can start weaning you down.
Alleycat,
Have they checked your thyroid levels? I know than can cause a lot of psychological symptoms and most drs just say you are depressed. If not, please ask them to check those.
Hang in there. You will make it!!
Thank you so much for your support. It really feels good to come on here and see people care.
I am still having a hard HARD time, but my husband did make me a dr. appt. Aug. 1. So, until then I will just have to stay strong.
I don't have much ambition to do much so I rarely get on the computer anymore. I will try to get on here more.
Thank you so much!!

When you go to see the Doctor ask him about your Meds as sometimes have side effects and can make you feel worse,or they react with each other, AS the others said Hold on and let some time go by, you will be okay and you have support from your Family,there are a lot of folks out there feeling the same as you, you are not alone,come back and vent some more ,we will be here.
Hi!
Hold on, be strong :-)
It's definitely a long wait. I've walked that line. From the appointment was made until I got in, it took well a year. I don't say that to discourage you. I didn't start out hoping I'd make it to that day - it was quite the opposite.
To have someone to carry the load together with makes a great difference. Speak up, define and you're going to come through.

No advice, no criticisms. Keep on venting - it's better than holding it in.
One other thing ....
