So I felt good for about 2 1/2 days with the new antidepressant. I think I'm better than I was before I took it, but not a huge amount.

I have so much to do and I'm not doing it.

Tomorrow is Meg's birthday. She's going to be 30. It's so hard to think of myself with a 30 yo kid.

My youngest is 51. It's hard to believe we’re that old.

I do hope the pills are working. They say that it takes up to six weeks to get full effect. I do hope they'll help. I know mine finally did.

My youngest just turned 24. "They grow up so fast" is such a cliche, but it's so true.

I've tried so many antidepressants. They'll work for a little while (or I won't give them the chance because the side effects are so bad), and then stop, and then we have to try something new. I really am hoping so hard that this one is working.

I'm so glad your meds are working! 💚💚💚

The side effects for my bipolar meds caused essential tremors. They are so bad but when they started they said it was too late. Everyone thinks I have Parkinsons Disease. They actually hurt most of the time but at least they are doing the trick. I take Abilify for my bipolar needs. Other than the tremors, I feel great. I've been on so many. Ended up in hospital three times. I really hope this one doesn't give you any freaking side effects. I wish you luck. They also gave me Sertraline 35 years ago. It's helps the depression so much. I was lucky with that one.

When I took lithium, it gave me tremors, but the doctor realized what it was and pulled me off it quickly. It absolutely sucks that yours isn't going away.
