I guess I don...Thanks for being open about this. I guess I don't even think of anti-depressants as anything but benign. Myself, I take 40 mg of Lexapro (its generic equivalent) plus some amount of Welbutrin (its generic equivalent) daily, and have for about 15 years. I just wanted to say I love having you for a pastor and I feel both welcomed and challenged at church every Sunday. You are a gift.rphinvthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12267997100851468734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9096696136024576011.post-10634264459846410782014-11-14T23:48:23.765-07:002014-11-14T23:48:23.765-07:00Hey there, I found you via the NaBloPoMo blogroll....Hey there, I found you via the NaBloPoMo blogroll.<br /><br />I ark up when people start going on about not needing drugs to treat depression. People do not want to say that in my presence, because they will get a long list of questions, they start like this..<br /><br />Oh right. So, if someone is diabetic, you would tell them to survive without the insulin? Do you take headache tablets when you have a headache? What about someone with an organ transplant, would you advise them not to take the drugs that keep their body from rejecting the new organ? Do you take any drugs at all? Which ones? What for? Oh, you don't need those. I'm not a doctor, but I know you can stop taking them right away, they are not necessary. <br /><br />And this will go on.. and on.. and people usually get the message within about 10 minutes and recant their ridiculous statement. :)<br /><br />As part of NaBloPoMo I try to comment on as many participating blogs as I can, and I also add participating blogs to my feed reader.<br /><br />So I’m just dropping by to let you know I’ve added your blog to my feedreader, I’m reading you loud and clear, I have a link up going at my place so my readers can find participating blogs which you are more than welcome to add your blog link to.<br /><br />Looking forward to seeing your posts, and you’ll likely see me drop by again during November.<br /><br />Happy NaBloPoMo to you!<br />Snoskred<br />http://www.snoskred.orgSnoskredhttp://www.snoskred.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9096696136024576011.post-31722433211918927332014-11-14T10:53:06.156-07:002014-11-14T10:53:06.156-07:00Thank you, thank you, thank you! For your courage ...Thank you, thank you, thank you! For your courage and honesty in sharing. I truly believe that telling these truths makes it possible for others to accept that they may need such help. <br /><br />I've been on meds for depression & anxiety since the early 90's and likely will be forever. I am grateful to have access.
