Hi dusky, welcome to NMP. I had trouble finding a med that suited me for years. I tried Prozac many years ago and decided to give it another go and it worked for me. Luckily, I am not med free, although I do take Quiet Life tablets as and when I need them (still suffer with insomnia).

Write as much as you want hun, just get it all off your chest and I'm sure you will get lots of good advice and reassurance.

Les, xx

Hello Everyone and thanyou for the replys , It is nice to find such lovely caring people , like you were Ma Larkin i am trying to find medication that suits me at the moment , I have had a very bad 24hrs with depression etc , my other half is going to get the doc to visit on Mon , I asked her if i could go into hospital in Dec but she advised me to bear with it saying home was better than hospital , i hope the Trazadone helps me a little bit . Its seems to be 1 step forward and 2 steps back for me , When i was on Fluvoxamine i managed most housechores , cooking , visiting doc myself , shopping sometimes , etc , I wonder if i should go back on them because now it looks like the pros outweigh the cons , Thankyou again everyone for replying Take care Dusky xxx
