depression

I'll respond to other posts later (From page 231) Need a rest after this post, very little sleep last 3 nights.

Okay, I need to say to 'S'

Why are you not replying to my texts? The other week I was in a really bad way and you didn't respond to me


Why do you go through flatmate to try and arrange 'meetings' with me?

I don't want you saying you care about me if you don't honestly care.

I need to say those things, but in a walking on eggshells type of way.

I thought

"Is there a problem, as you don't answer my text messages anymore"

"Could you phone/text me if you want to meet as it's not fair on flatmate to go through her all the time"

"The other week when I text you, I was in a bad way, but you didn't respond, when a few weeks ago you said you'd be there for me if I needed you, but you weren't"

I need to say these gently, as she'll likely go into hiding from me for a while anyway.

I need to say something, i'm just not used to someone I care about and them being fragile

He was very mature about it and will put the money back from the proceeds of his new job.

We are in the process of him going to close his account and get an online one where we can keep an eye on it.

He has been a bl**dy fool and hopefully, he will grow up and get his money sorted. He wants to leave home and realises he won't be able to if he stays this stupid.

Grrrr site's doing my head in. Could it possibly go any s-l-o-w-e-r....? :rolleyes:

Anyhow will try and get this message through by the end of the year, CCStar - glad to hear it was a civilised discussion. Sounds like son's being sensible about it. Thanks heavens, I bet you're relieved hun x

Hi - I'm onlto week three of my prozac. I was scared when I started taking it - I thought it might affect my driving so I took it after i'd finished driving for the day! I also made a special trip to the chemist when I got a cold because I was a bit scared of taking it with paracetamol products - too much reading on the internet!

And, I haven't dared touch a drop of alcohol since I took the first one - there seem to be lots of tales of people having a couple of drinks and then going a bit strange!!

Anyway, I wanted to ask.....when my GP gave them to me he said to come back in about 4 weeks and book an end of surgery appointment for a longer chat. I've been putting off making the appointment but called the surgery today and was told he wouldn't be back until 11 December. I can't make an appointment with him until he returns.

I only have 7 more tablets left, so I will have a gap between taking the last one and when I get an appointment, which may not be for a few days after the 11th.

If I ask for a repeat prescription, will I be prescribed more? Or do you think I'll have to return to the doctor's to see someone again?

What is everyone elses situation - can you get a repeat prescription?

The doctors tend to like to see you monthly to monitor your progress in the early days. It is a good opportunity for you to tell him how you feel and bring up any issues or side effects you might be concerned about, or even tell him you are feeling better.

It is best not to leave a gap if you can help it so see if you can get an appointment asap.

You can drink alcohol with Prozac but if you have any doubt it could upset you then it is best to refrain. As far as I know taking ibuprofen and paracetamol with Prozac is fine.

Hi Miro, welcome back! My initial feeling is maybe this is something that might be better in a card or a handwritten note? Don't know what other peeps think but I tend to use texting for very brief messages, but trouble with that is they can be misconstrued, if it's something important that you are trying to get across in just a few words - and that's nothing to do with the quality of one's English - just the limitations of the medium - know what I mean hun?

It is good to write down and speak what you want to say to her, without saying it.

I want you to be happy and I know she can make you feel good but she is very complicated. You have been thro the mill too and you are taking on a lot. What is the percentage ratio of happiness to feeling unhappy in this relationship? Can you see it getting better?

Indeed, one step at a time. I've got everything crossed it's sunk in this time x

It is very difficult for me

We have discipline issues in this house.

I don't feel backed up by my husband and I don't feel he is terribly effective. I feel undermined all the time and feel I look stupid. My mother has been a good back up but it isn't really her job. I know the right thing to do but I am undermined, so need her moral support sometimes. My son and her were close, so he does respect her.

We all have the same goal of getting him and getting him to stay on track, so I hope we are not confusing him too much.

I do feel my marriage is in jeopardy tho. I feel emotionally rejected by my husband a lot. I feel undermined and put down a lot by him. His table manners repel me. I am beginning to really hate him. I have tried telling him but it's not sinking in, he thinks he is OK. I feel our son is picking up his bad habits. For a year now I have felt bullied in my own home. I am at my happiest when I am in my room. I can't live like this forever. I can't work or have a life - I feel stunted.

We are putting the place up for sale in the new year. This is the first time I have felt confident enough to go. I wanted to leave 14 years ago but didn't want to split the parenting.

It is a big step but the thought of being with my husband much longer is making me feel suicidal
