Hi. I have two dcs. DS has high functioning ASD. DH was made redundant and has a job about 80 miles from where we live do he's living there in the week and is just back at weekends. We are moving house to be together again. My mum died from cancer a few years ago and my dad is severely disabled. I help look after him. I have no support network at all.
Two years ago I had a sort of 'breakdown' I just couldn't cope anymore. I became suicidal and was eventually diagnosed with severe depression. GP put me on prozac (after six months of begging for help) it was amazing and within a few weeks I was fine again :) my usual gp said asy depression was so severe I may have to remain on them for life :(
Earlier this year I as another gp who said I should try to come off them. I decided to try as some of the side effects weren't pleasant (no interest in sex, dry down below amongst other things) anyway came of them, felt great.
Last couple of weeks, I've had feelings of anxiety again, been very tearful the last few days and today, felt hopeless and struggling to see the point in going on again :(
Don't really know what I'm posting for, DH is more interested in his job these days and I feel wretched again. Started prozac again today :(
