I have been dealing with depression and anexity for about 7 years now. I have been on a couple differnent meds. I have currently been on celexa and xanax for the past 2 years until last month when I switched to zoloft and buspar since I am trying to get pregnant and those are safer for pregnancy. I have had wonderful luck with the meds. I am not one to depend on meds but they have helped me and I think that if they are needed they are a good helper.

briefly,something to ponder is this. depression is caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain is the common belief. anti-depresants work by trying to adjust these imbalances back to 'normal' therefore diminishing the depression and its crippling effects. i believe this is very rarely the truth. i believe it is our own constant anxiety and obsessive thinking due to a particular situation present in our life we see as impossible to escape causing our mind to chemically 'inbalance'. therefore even if our brain can be bought back to 'normal', if the situation is unresolved the imbalance will continually re-occur. my thoughts anyway. to fix depression i had to fix the depression i had to adress the problems causing it in the first place.???

My depression and anxiety are related to my younger son's health..I think it has been a culmination of things, but with our type of health issues, there's no escape, they're not going away.

I know how and why I was experiencing the things I was, but wasnt able to stop those obsessive thoughts etc., even when I tried. The anti depreseents worked well for me, and I think exercise would work well too...but, maybe not as well.

I am feeling so much better now, the situation hasnt changed, but I'm not walking around crying all the time and waking up in the night having panic attacks. I feel motivated and believe I can do things now...the meds have definitely helped me, and that's what matters to me.
