MDJunction to me

Claire138"It's been a year since I joined the Parkinson's Disease Support Group on MDJunction and all I can say is thank you all for the support, compassion and friendship I've received and been able to give as well. It was a lonely night when I came upon this site, but the nights aren't that lonely anymore...
With gratitude to all...

for so many months i was doing very well mentally. i am falling apart again. i take meds for this crap and i still get messed up. i going down the tubes phjysically and i can't handle it. i'm so very sad, having panic attacks and get violently angry. i thought i had gotten better this yr. i can't believe this happening again. i'm losing it. i'm so horrible to my husband. i feel like i gave everything a try for yrs and now i deserve peace. i wanted today to be better and instead i lost it. i was going to go out with my husband for dinner but everything is ruined. i ruin everything.

Hi ... sounds to me like you are having a relapse ... that can happen & actually is kinda expected to happen. Each episode of depression seems to be different ... and worse. I've heard that 20% of recovery is the drugs and 80% is changing your way of thinking ... you need to try to find what triggers you. It also could be as simple as needing a med change ... take that back, it's not easy with med changes either! You don't ruin everything ... you need to get your body acclimated again. I hate those panic attacks. Everybody has a bad day ... but for those of us with depression & anxiety don't/can't handle it as well. Just take one day at a time & please don't beat yourself up ... this is a disease!
I'm an 8/yr survivor of breast cancer ... my precious husband of 25 yrs died a year ago from kidney cancer mets to lungs ... I suffer from depression, panic attacks, anxiety, liver disease, thyroid disease, & diabetes (borderline).

I AM GOING THROUGH THE SAME THING RIGHT NOW. MY HUBBY LOST HIS JOB 3 WEEKS AGO AND IM SO DEPRESSED AND SCARED ABOUT OUR FUTURE AND ALL WE DO IS ARGUE AND WHEN WE DO I TELL HIM ...I CANT TAKE IT ANYMORE AND IM GOING CRAZY IN MY MIND TRYING TO DEAL WITH EVERYTHING AND MY DEPRESSION GETTING WORSE. I FEEL HE DOESNT UNDERSTAND DEPRESSION BUT HE IS TOO BUSY WITH EVERYTHING ELSE TO REALLY TAKE TIME TO LEARN.

SO DONT FEEL ALONE I AM IN THE SAME BOAT AND CLUELESS ABOUT WHAT TO DO TOO.

You didn't ruin everything, it's your disease. No one thinks of depression as an actual disease and it is. Don't hate yourself....look deep inside. Do you have a good therapist? You know alcholic's have relapses. All diseases do. The key is to get treatment. If you ever want to talk feel free to PM me.
