I used to be on Prozac until it stopped working. Did you know that Prozac can stop working??? I sure as hell didn't!
I never even considered that I had depression until I was about to get married and my now husband told me that I should really go to the doctor because he couldn't handle my moods (crying all the time). I always thought that I was just too emotional and somehow lacked the discipline to control my emotions like everyone else. Hubs was the first person to suggest that I could get help. What a frickin' concept. After 35 years of being a mess, could it actually be that it wasn't "my fault"?
So, I had the choice to call the doctor or remain single. I called the doctor the next day. It's amazing how fast you can get an appointment when you say "depression". I went to see my doctor, told him that I've basically always been overly emotional and he prescribed Prozac.
My life changed. I felt was a assume "normal" people feel like. I was also a little pissed that I didn't realize I had depression sooner so that I could've started taking these happy pills sooner! Years down the drain. Sucks to be me sometimes!
