One way to deal with the overwhelming sense of blues when heartbreak + Seasonal depression add up to a deep depression. ZOLOFT. I highly recommend it.

 

I feel such a sense of well being and goodness. It's like an illegal drug without the feeling of being "hi".

 

The whole situation has hit me really hard. I have felt so powerless to do anything. I have feared more than anything my son being taken from me and simply given to another man...like a door prize. I have put all the feelings I still had faced them.... acknowledged that I still had them...exposed them...and been rejected.

 

I have had to deal with my own family here. Who I take care of.. acting almost as if they don't like the idea of my paying attention to people other than them. My parents acting as if I was given birth just so that I could take care of them in their old age...not caring about my personal life.

 

I felt broke down. Left out. Stepped on. The most unwanted unloveable thing in the world.

 

Then after a bit of counseling I got back on Zoloft. (after being off since 1998).

 

I also had some luck with other women today. No sex...but one Muslima wants to marry me after seeing a profile on a matrimonial website that I gave up on a long time ago. Another woman I met in a friendly way six months ago. "E "I wrote about here as being a possible woman I could date other than "S".

"E" Asked me to attend the dress rehearsal of her next opera..."E" is really very interested.

 

Plus even "S" contacted me....sometimes apologizing really does work a little. If I am wise perhaps I can at least not need to sue her to secure my parental rights (fingers crossed).

 

I don't know if it's the pill I took or things turning around but I feel really really good right now. Kinda like this song says.

 

 

Don't be afraid to go to the Dr. and get on some psych meds. They exist for a reason.

I'm happy that Zoloft has helped you, but there are many out there, including myself, that zoloft and other psych meds have not been good for. This thread was a recent discussion on this matter:

I know they are not a panacea but for most people they will help quite a bit.

 

Like today I don't feel depression about my situation. Which is good...I should not feel depressed.

 

What I do feel is torn.... between wanting to totally let go of a very old and tattered but familliar pattern with one ex...and wanting to start something new with a wonderful young woman. Then thinking about where it could all lead since that EX has my child and no matter what will be some tiny part of my life for the rest of my life.

 

With the Zoloft I can see these as what they are...challenges I will have to deal with and sort out...not insolveable problems that I'll never deal with.
