    I'm sorry I can't give you reassurance. I've been on 25 mg 2 weeks, 50 mg 2 weeks, and 75 mg 22 days. It's making me worse. I'm actually going to an inpatient psychiatry unit tonight. My depression got so bad. I can't take it anymore. Have you thought about genetic testing for antidepressants. I'm hoping I can get that done. This has been pure hell.

      Thinking of you Sarah I got that bad and had to attend the unit last year however after assessment I wasn't admitted yet got home support, I know it's hard yet if you are admitted you will get the support you need and one day this will make you stronger although I know it doesn't seem like that. When I was at the worse time I saw no way out at all a day would seem like a week I longed for a year to pass as I knew I may be better by then. It seems strange to wish your life away yet that's what you do to a time where your well again, keep on in there promise there will be a brighter day xxx
