: I posted on this awhile back, about how DH drained my account. Anyways, things have still not changed, and we have now been seperated for about 3 weeks. (our 3rd anniversary is next week) At first he wanted counselling, and I told him to go ahead and book it, now 3 days later he dont want. To keep a long story short, I need help, I was strong at first, but now am starting to crack. I booked myself a counselling appt tonight. Im gonna go with or without him. I've made numerous sucide attempts (with pills, 3 years ago, and Im not doing that now I have a son to live for) but I wanna get the help before I feel like that again. Tina, my doctor just put me on Zoloft. I don't know if it works or not takes about a month she said. I really don't care about side effects right now I just want to feel better. But I've heard you can have insomnia and some other minor effects. Go to counseling, without him if you have to, do it for yourself, for your son. You can feel better and you've already made the first step. And don't let any man bring you down. You can do this and you will feel better.

: My question is about depression. Is anyone on medication for depression, and if so what side effects do you suffer, any pro's or con's? Relapses? Is there any herbal remedies I could try first? I have heard of St. John's Wart, but dont know much about it. Im scared about the thought of suffering side effects from medication.
