I feel like maybe I want to die or something. I haven't been taking my medicine. I keep telling myself that I should be, but for some reason I keep putting it off.

I have to wonder why. It's been months since the last time I took my antibiotics. Am I scared?

I don't even know what I want people to say, but I think in some sense, maybe I do want to die.

Miranda - It is Lyme depression. So many people do not realize how very powerful depression is.

You must take your medication and at least TRY to get well. Don't let Lyme depression rule your life.

Pick yourself up and fight girl!!!

Also - talk to your doctor about the depression - I take Sam-e which I get at Costco. It has helped termendously!!!!!

It's part of the illness, please don't let it beat you down!!!

Sending uplifting energy your way - and prayers.

Miranda!!!!!!!

HELL-O!!!!!! gosh have I been there!!!!!!!! I can relate about the desparate feelings, the wondering if I will ever get well etc.....the list goes on.

You need to get some help for your depression, which is nothing to be ashamed of. Lyme causes it, being chronically ill causes it.

BEST of ALL, you can feel better if you address your issue with this depression.....

Please talk to someone, PM me and I'll talk yo9u through this.... later you will realize it was only a blip on the radar....
