I suffer from depression, and can dissolve into unstoppable tears. And yes, I take meds for this. How do you deal with depression?
I too stay in constant prayer. Bible study everyday for an hour or more. Christian Worship music as well, singing along , lifting my hands to praise the Lord. I take 1500 mg Tumeric because pills do not cooperate with my body. Focus on the beauty of the Lordโs creation.
My daughter gave me four houseplants three years ago and now I have 30! They are exceptional therapy.
Blessings to you.
Some anti depressants actually magnify depression. Tumeric helps a lot! Plus, it is natural and an anti inflammatory ๐๐ป๐๐ป
@A MyMSTeam Member, one of the main systems of MS is depression. It's a chemical imbalance in the brain that's caused from it. That and the stress of having the disease. I take medication for it, ambilify
Hello there, @A MyMSTeam Member! I have suffered from chronic depression for about 30 years. It runs in my mother's side of the family. My daughter was also recently diagnosed, and she also sees a therapist. I take Paroxetine, which is the generic version of Paxil. It works very well for me. You may want to tell your doctor that you're still crying a lot. He/She may want to change your meds or your dosage. Please keep us posted on how you're doing. Take care of you! Lisa ๐๐ธ
Thank you so much! I see a counsellor once a month, but maybe I should see her more often. Unfortunately, sheโs retiring soon, so now I need to find someone else. Sighโฆ
It helps me to see someone about once a week or every two weeks. It varies depending on situations in my life. It clears my thoughts and helps me see things better. ๐
