Taking antidepressents for the first time tomorrow morning.

[Cesca1557]

Hi,

Im not really sure why im posting this but Im feeling really unsure about taking medication tomorrow. I have had depression for about 7 years, but at the beginning my mum thought i was too young (i was 12-13), and its only now that I have finally decided that I need something else to help as I cant seem to make myself happy on my own.
I am really hopefull for what the antidepressents will do, but I am also really worried. My father has bipolar, and I am really worried that by taking them, it could trigger it in me. I dont have bipolar my self, but due to the genetic predisposition to it and the increased chance of getting it as my dad has it, im really worried that this might be enough to set it off.
As much as I want to be happy, if it risked me going through what he has gone through and put us through over the years, I wouldnt do it.

Sorry, im not really sure what the point of this was, I think I just wanted to vent a little bit.

Hi C

i glad you had a productive day today. Your prac tomorrow sound fun I'd love to do some stuff like that I've dissected a few things here but it's a bit differnt.

Yeah it is good to get out in nature the bush is kind of in my blood I hate the cirty. Oh you don't get to the country very often aye well we will have to figure out a way to change that somehow, haha. You seem like a country girl at heart I'm sure you'd fit in very well out here in the bush with us country folk, haha.

Yeah I'm kind of hoping my friend will eventually chose to join me again, I don't know you know those deep gut feeling you get I've got one of those about this, her job feels really wrong to me, I know it sounds crazy but my guts usally right about this kind of thing, haha I really do sound crazy,😜

Yeah I'm not feeling great but I get a lot of chest infections it's not to bad at the moment I'm going to give it a couple days and see how I go.

Yea im looking forward to it, its a bit gross at the start but you get used to it

haha no im a complete city girl, its nice to get away for a week or so, but i love how busy it is and how close to everything i am so could never live anywhere else haha
no, not crazy at all! You know her so well so im sure your instinct is probably right or atleast close to it
thats not good that you often get them! definitley something you should talk to your doctor about if you can
thinking of you too

I hope you enjoy it.

i wish I could show you what real country life is about if you had any idea you would never turn back, we have everything we need here the local shops only 5 minutes away and the bus stops in at town twice a day if people need a shopping fix. Nah can't beat the bush it in a thousand years you haven't lived till you have spent the night around a big bon fire listening to owls, bats and other night life with a beer in one hand a good freind next to you. And the country can get pretty busy you have no idea it's just a bit differnt you never know what's going to happen. Haha I'll figure out a way to convince you of the bush yet.😃

Im glad you don't think I sound crazy some people have called me a wizard becuase I've known things are going to happen before they do I don't know I guess I have good instincts, still think I'm not crazy, haha. But yeah I think your right I don't know I have some kind of connection with Sara I know when things aren't right.

yeah it's becuase I had pneumonia when I was little and I now have asthma becuase of it.

hope tomorrow goes well for you.

Hey cesca how's it going? I haven't been on here too much lately. How's it going with the antidepressants and the side effects and everything? Day one of my new meds was yesterday and I've woken up feeling so nauseated already! Hope it doesn't last too long. Hope you've been going well!
