I never had xanax in a drip but I do think it makes depression worse (I have that whether I'm on anything or not), just that there are degrees of it. I have what is called co-morbidity and had to make a choice. I said I can deal with the depression but not the panic attacks.
I did go off my only psych med for 2 years back in around 2003. I felt kind of like a zombie but kept to my routine and went for a walk almost every day. I couldn't do more that a little over a mile (I'm going to be 73 now). Now well my son committed suicide and i'm messed up for good. I shake so bad I can hardly write checks to pay my bills. My knees are shot. And more. That kind of grief affects your physical health. I don't want to whine about this any more.
I'm supposed to drink Gatorade or one of those drinks. They're heavy to tote home from the store with everything else but I got 2 big ones today. I don't want to go through a laundry list of what all is wrong with me but i'm really surprised I lived this long with what all I've been through. And I keep busy and am sad but try to stay task oriented, the things I can still do.
Thank you for your suggestions.
Aliska, you certainly have borne a heavy burden. I am doing the only thing that I feel led to do—to pray for you and for your load to be lightened.
God bless.
Wow Aliska! Stay strong love and God for direction. Stay away meds and eat as natural as possible, lots of water!! It’s tough but have goals , write them down, and know that with God all things are possible.
