    morning everyone, feeling bit down this morning , already had a good cry.
    basically whats happened is i split with ex bf, just over a week ago, because he was making me feel more depressed by the way he was towards me. anyway he keeps ringing me, asking for another chance, telling me he still loves me, well i was feeling lonely on a night, and started wondering if i had made the right decision, and thought bout taking him back. well this morning i answered phone when i rang, and told him how i was feeling, and he said he missed me and felt lonely too. so we agree to meet up tommorrow, go shopping and see how we get on. he ends conversation, something along the lines, saying we will get on better, once i stop being so over sensitive, and get my head sorted. feel like i'm getting the blame again, for things going wrong in our relationship, and again wondering if i would be better of alone and lonely, rather than being with someone and unhappy if that makes sense?
    (((((big hugs))))) to ccstar, i know how hard it is to be with somone when they bring you down, my exbf did that to me. miss him terribly but started feeling brighter, til today when i've had contact again with him again, and now feeling down again.
    big hugs to all those that want or need one

    Are you sure you aren't talking about my OH? - you have answered your own question, you feel brighter again, then bought down by your ex. He doesn't sound very considerate and puts the blames on you - that sounds very typical - he has to see his contribution, no-one person is completely to blame. Do you see any pattern in how he treats you? How is towards you when you feel good?

    It is Christmas and the days are short, I imagine most people and especially people who are depressed feel more down than normal. It is supposed to be a time for being with people who make you happy and a time for celebration. The choice just now seems to be being lonely or be with someone who makes you unhappy. Only you can decide what to do over Christmas but come the new year, it is the time for new beginnings.

    Hi The Devil Made Me Do It (great name!)

    I've not taken Zispin. As I'm sure you know, anti-depressants have different effects on different people. What works for some people doesn't work for other. That said, it can sometimes be helpful to read other peoples experiences. At the Patient website, you can read peoples experiences of Zispin (Also known as Mirtazapine) here:
    http://experience.patient.co.uk/discussion_list.php?d=109

    Please do not get disheartened if you read that it doesn't work for some people. That doesn't mean it won't work for you. I'd also recommend you don't read up on your medication if you are prone to developing side-effects once reading them!

    I've just started on a new type of medication, and I can understand how you may be feeling unsure. If you want to talk, there are lots of people who have experience of depression, anxiety and antidepressants here. I'm feeling alright with the new tablets, although I feel like a zombie with a hyper sense of smell. I can smell everything and its really making me feel sick!

    have already told him i dont want him around at xmas, i need to stay as happy as i possibly can be whilst still feeling lonely, cos i got 2 sons who need me there at xmas.
    exbf talking bout us making new start in new year, i'm thinking new start for me, poss join gym, or find some other hobby to help me make new friends, and stop me from being as lonely.
    saw my gp this afternoon, who noticed that i was less sad than i usually am, and asked what had happened in last week since i saw him, told him bout splitting up with ex, and also told gp bout thinkin bout going back to him, gp's reply was give it a lot of time and thought before considering it, as he knows the pain my exbf has caused.

    I just want to give up now. It's all become too much for me.
    But I don't want to upset my Fiance and our parents. :(

    I just don't know what to do.
