    We have all been there, it is an awful feeling.  The antidepressants usually take about 2 weeks to get into your system, its a gradual process getting to feeling more like normal, they truly helped me through a very bad time.   Hold in there my dear.

    Try drinking some Holy Basil Tea.  Instead of coffee or other teas you might be drinking.  It will ease your body and mind.  After drinking the tea, close your eyes and imagine a cool lake surrounded by mountains and the small waves gently lapping at the shoreline. Water so clear you can see the trout swimming and enjoying being a fish.  There you are, enjoy being a stress free person, after taking a few deep, slow breaths.  You exhale out all your triggers.
