Hi Crazyboards people


Recommended Posts

Hello.  I've never been to a pdoc but am calling for a referral monday.  I suspect my MD will say dumb stuff but I'm doing it anyway.  I was on Prozac for years, never really helped.  I'm trying to keep my courage up tonight.  Drink way too much booze sometimes, I get very depressed sometimes kinda manic others.  I was actually sober for a bunch of years but went with a substitute addiction.  Racing thoughts, insomnia, etc.  Today I feel like I've been standing in the way of my own success and happiness for a long time because of not asking for help.

Hey catflapjack0- I am new to this site as well.  Glad you are going to see a pdoc.  When you get the right one for you,  it can be amazing.  Also glad you are asking for help, that shows your courage.  Good luck with the referral and keep reaching for help, it is out there.

Welcome to Crazyboards.  I ask all new members to read the rules, just so we're all operating on the same page.

 

I'm glad you are seeking treatment and I hope we can be a source of support.

Thanks for the welcome mol.  I had a bit of clarity a couple days ago and figured out that I've been very negative about treatment.  My mother had some treatment and took some meds and it never really worked out to my way of seeing things, and I've probably let that color my thinking.  I can be very stubborn about achieving goals, so I think I need to use that trait to try to get some relief.  I'd really like to walk around believing everything will always be okay (yes I know some of those lucky people) and maybe I can never have that but I'd sure like to be less impulsive and self-destructive.

 

Edit - Thanks olga.  I actually read the rules, kindof a rarity for me.  I like dogs and opinionated people.
