Hi everyone hope you are all having a great day!! I went to see my GP today told him the AD's I was taking (Citalopram 20mg) and they were not helping me and made feel drowsy quite often. I got prescribed Sertraline 50mg so hopefully they will have more of a positive effect than my previous AD's, has anyone been prescribed this particular AD before? I'm a little nervous trying a new AD and any side effects they might have on me so advice or experiences anyone had would be of great use! Take care everyone.

Hey williamo I don't have any experience with Sertraline, but just wanted to say welcome
If you look on the Patient website, you can search you any medication and people add comments on how it was for them - that might be worth looking at.
Hope you have more luck with them, take care and stick around if you like!

Sorry but I am at the end of my tether

I can't stop crying today

You see all the lovely Christmas stuff and it makes you feel all loving. You may think, lucky me, I have a family to share it with - bulls**t!!

My husband says he cares etc but backs off sexually (emotionally). It has only been since we have been married. I married for it all. I don't want to look for someone else to make up for his faults.

My self esteem is at rock bottom when he does this, life is a pile of poo, then his nonsense at the end of the day. There is no pleasure. I have been able to endure it but I can't take any more.

I am supposed to be getting ready to go out shopping and be happy. How can I be happy with him?, the way he hurts me with his come here, go away behaviour. I don't want him seeing me like this. I used to let him see my like this, then he would be all loving but only once I reach rock bottom, never when I feel good or OK. I can't go on like this any more. It is sick and it's driving me mental. I used to think it was my fault but I have done everything I can and he still does this.

I spoke to my mother and she isn't taking me seriously, she has a 'yes dear' attitude and I will be lonely if I leave. What have I got to lose, I hate this house and feel worse than lonely now. I have the downside of being with people annoying me and none of the pleasures. I might as well be alone and enjoy the peace.

I want to end it all one way or another.

I am so sorry to hear how you are doing. I wish I could take you out for a coffee and give you a hug (if I'm near I will if you want). The fact that you can still post on here is a good sign. Put some music you love on or a video. Music is my salvation when I feel at the bottom. Is there someone you trust enough to have some contact with - if you can face it? I don't know if you are under someone (medical - lol) but this does sound extreme and you shouldn't be left to deal with it.

Rose07
It sounds like a wild ride you're having girl!
I think some people there need a kick. But you have great spirit and I can tell it will get sorted. Good Luck.

It must be hard to feel alone yet be with people and I send you a hug. I'm not much good at the advice malarkey so I'll just say that you sound quite capable and I'm sure you are strong enough to sort out your problems.

Miro - I wish you luck mate. It sounds like I went out with a similar but less extreme version of your g/f. It is a very difficult thing to deal with. I'm not sure it's possible (wasn't in my case) but maybe you can succeed where I failed. Never forget your own worth, no-one can just be a giver in the long term. Relationships need you both to have a turn being the needy one.

Blinky
Thank you mate. I'm in a more numb frame of mind today. Not depressed as much as daunted today. I feel like a day off from worrying if that's possibe. I will go back to brum on Saturday to visit family - I like doing that. I'm waiting for the dole forms to arrive so I'm not sure how long I can stay up there tho.

Tiff
Thank's for the welcome back - not a good thing tho is it lol.
Well done with the not drinking. Cheers.

philippa36, elona, geminilady, sazbo - Big thanks and hugs to you all.

and fg
I care about you and will be happy if you are happy xx


I feel like driving round the counrty distributing hugs to you all.

Today i'm feeling 'healthy', its not a can't get dressed day, its a don't want to get dressed day. Sounds like a small difference, but is actually a big difference

I don't think I'll ever understand relationships, mine or anyone elses. Just gotta go with the flow and see what happens, all we can do.

:grouphug:

I don't want to get dressed because the rows and tension makes me all dirty again. It is a waste of time trying to look good when I stay in. He only brings me down again. Anything I do to improve myself and feel good about myself, results in him spoiling it and upsetting me. No matter what I do, it happens.

I have tried talking to him, I have tried giving him a dose of his own medicine, I have tried ranting and crying. I don't know what else to do!

Also, I am doing a lot of packing and cooking smelly food. Staying in is one dirty job

I was going to qualify the drink comment in case you were being ironic.
I assume everyone on here drinks like a fish - most sound like they do.
(I am being funny - or trying to be).

I'm going to make the odd slip as I don't really know any of you. I could go back to page 1 and read it all.
