Hi Guys my name is Dave and I've been suffering with depression for about 10 years now. Thankfully I did manage to have a break from everything and managed to 'recover' and come off my medication though that only lasted for a few months.
I've started again on my tablets and have been doing ok on them, apart from all the hot flushes (feel like I should be sitting down with my mam and compairing flushed and HRT therapies :D). I have tried most of the medication on the market - TCA's no good as they gave me migraines, didn't want to try MAOI's due to side effects and the fact they interact with loads of foods, but I gound that SSRI's worked quite well. I found that Citalopram worked for a while and then I moved onto Sertraline (and these have given me the flushes).
I try to have an active life and go kick boxing two to three times a week and I have to admit I am finiding that I am not enjoying it as much as when I started.
I have decided that i would like to try and buuy a home but now I am getting all nervous about it and that I need to get it done. some days I just want to sit down and cry about it all and then i feel like I need to slap myself to get out of my mood.
If anybody can offer some advice or comments then please feel free.
Dave
