[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 354495, member: 1514"] Well, welcome to my medication merry go round! Sounds like your doctor just read my list and decided to copy it. I dont think that some of us are resilient and hopeful, at least Im not. Maybe others are. I just cant get up the gumption yet to give up. These disorders or syndromes or whatever they are have taken just about everything from me and I know you feel that way too. Sometimes success is just getting through each day. I asked my therapist in an email just this morning how on earth I could be so damned depressed when Im on so many mood stabilizers and now an AD? She said it was because I had so many situational things going on plus the horrific pain stuff that it wasnt any wonder I was depressed. Gosh knows what I would be like if I was unmedicated! Scary thought...lol. Heather....you are still in the fairly early days of this stuff. I know it doesnt feel like it but you are. I have dealt with it for almost 20 years now and it does ebb and flow. Sometimes you will feel better than others. You will have times where you almost feel your old self then it comes back. Thats hard too. Just hang on. Topamax really did make the fibro feel better. I can tell if I forget it right away. Lamictal is great. We shall see about the wellbutrin but I did ok on it before. [/QUOTE]
