So I went to the Drs today. I was to a weight management thing as I am obese. Today was about seeing a councillor and trying to find a reason for my overeating. I have always used it as a form of self harm. I sabotage myself with food.
Anyway we were talking about when it all started, the pnd I suffered with each child, my childhood and some problems at home. We then talked about how I don't like social situations because of my size, exhausted all of the time, feeling weepy. Anyway She told me I was depressed and my serotonin levels are low and I need to take anti depressants for life. She explained that if I was diabetic i wouldn't question about taking insulin so I shouldn't worry about the anti depressants. She was amazing and I am booked in with a phsycogist next week. I pick up my citlopram tomorrow.
I don't feel depressed like I did with Pnd is that normal?
Dh suffers with ptsd so home life is a bit stressful and I don't feel i can talk to him about this at the moment as he will blame himself and i don't feel I have strength to support him through it today. I've come home and feel very emotional and exhausted. Is this normal?
Is anyone else on anti depressants permanently? I was on them for about 9 months years a go but that's it. Citlopram worked for me but was an arse to come off with the head zaps.
Sorry for the spelling mistakes I just wanted to let it out.
