It's my sons 15th birthday and I'm numb. I'm on treatment and haven't been myself in months,but I wish I can be there. I am and the pictures will show it, but I am so sad. Had a better night last night, but today is shot. Am scared have to live in this death like state. I know I am not alone, but sometimes it gets to you. I love him and I'm so sad. This too shall pass.

Perhaps you could use an antidepressant to help during this time? Or a change in meds if you are already on one.
I'm sorry that you are feeling so bad. There really is HOPE.
Do you have someone you can talk to?
Do you have spiritual support?
I am praying for your improvement.

thanks much. I am going to my psych tomorrow, I am already on an anti-depressant, maybe she'll up it. Its hard to talk to someone that doesn't understand. Thanks so much for your support and prayers. Hope you feel better. Even though I don't show I believe, I walk around with my moms rosary beads in my pocket. Somethings gotta give.

If you don't like your psyciatrist, maybe see someone else?
I find the best ones are the ones that are willing to change my psych meds up when necessary, as opposed to the ones that want to chit chat but never change or do anything.
I'm so sorry you're having such a rough time. Do you think this is a herx?
Some meds just can really throw us for a loop....if the Bactrim ends up not helping you, you may want to stop it if it's gonna be making you feel like this. Not everything's a herx.
Good luck!!!!!
