Week 5- So Depressing / Disgusting To Eat

[lglavish 15]

Daniel - I do undrstand

Melissa - they had me go off it the day of surgery and didnt give it to me in the hospital so when I got home I tried crushing it which I just could not swallow the taste was so bitter. After a week I fflt better. I do really well until I get stressed. I have seen a therapist before and feel they are robots with the same questions , no answers and "pay at the door" attitude. I felt like a slave to the pills.

If you were on an ssri it is really not good to stop them cold turkey permanently. I understand feeling like a slave to pills, I have RA and am on over a dozen rxs with two of them being injectable. My surgeon told me small pills are fine to take whole and the larger ones can be broken in half if crushing them is too much of a hassle or tastes too bad. I'm on zoloft and I stopped it only the day of surgery- I had no problems taking them the next day along with a statin and a beta blocker.

It kind of sounds like staying off your meds might be pushing you into depression? Hope you feel better soon.

Your posts made me smile today. Today was another horrible day at work. I cried all lunch hour. I feel so over whelmed. My support group meet next week and I will talk to the speaker afterwards. My daughter called today, she had a wreck. She;s ok but just something else that worried me. I started back on my Welbutrin. The pills were huge so i cut them in half and took it two halves together. I hope thats ok. Anything I drank or eat today, came back up. I know its nerves. I came home, ate, vomited, came to bed and covered my head and here I stay. I hate my job so much and loved it so much last month. They have just put way more on our office than I myself can handle. I'm watching for a new opening in the university but till then have to deal with it. And I don't know how to..... All of your advice on here makes sense and I will take it to heart and try to use it. I just at this moment don't feel like Im going to make it. Not suicidal...just unsure of my every day that I wake up. Dread waking up, dread going to bed.

I'm sorry you're having a bad day. The only advice I can offer is the same as your handle. Keep looking ahead. It will get better. Enjoy the bedroom camp out.
