5 months with no mecication, but now...

[Shirley]

Hi Everyone...


Yes, it´s true.


After I spend 5 months with no medication (fluoxetine) I'm back again.


It's true, I have deep depression, but what scared me more is my phobia.


And, of course, I never stoped my treatments (both: psychologist and psychiatrist), but, I just find out that the medication works on my body for a time, and then I needed to stop, but now I'm back again.


The nice stuff is that I just felt sadness, but that obssessive thought about v*** I just had a few times.


I still refuse to be sick... I'm scared to death about to get sick, But I don't have that slave days as I had before, when I felt a slave of my thoughts and fear.


Do you guys think that deep depression can trigger a worse time of my phobia back? I'm pretty scared...

Hi Shirkey

how have u felt without ur medication? i found that Fluxotine did nothing really for me - it was more situational then emotional depression - sometimes it takes a while before u find the right drug. the medication that has helped me most - ive been on prozac, beta blockers and now effexor - and effexor ahve worked wonders.

try not to panic too much - we are here for u - ur not going to get ill - it will be the panicking mainly i guess.
