Vivid dreams with lamactil/lamotrigine? I started taking Lamotrigine about a week and a half ago, and I gotta say, it's done wonders so far for my depression. With that, I've experienced some of the most vivid dreams of my life, some bad, but most good. Does anyone else here who takes it experience the same thing? Is ...

I imagine I shouldn't feel this way and yet I cannot escape it. I have my dream job, amazing wife, I pay my bills on time and still have some money left over at the end of the month....etc. I exercise, eat well, maybe I could use more sleep but I certainly go to bed early enough to be doing so. And yet, I don't feel h...

Strategies during an up time Hi all, If your depression is episodic like mine is (recently out of a ~2yr episode - I’m early 30s and have had about 4 maybe 5 episodes in my life), what strategies do you use during up times to build defenses for when it hits? Currently conscious that I need to do a better job batteni...

Relapse? Hi. I think I'm relapsing. I'm 31, and have been extremely anxious and awkward and depressed since before I can remember. But the last 4 years I've figured out my problem: my mother was a narcissist and was screwing with me my whole life. Anyway so after an ego death and trip through hell and back and a solo p...

Losing my employee So, hired a guy and trained him for a year and a half (takes about 3 years of training to get this job right). He wants a giant raise, but he's been unreliable at times, doesn't follow rules well, and has been written up by HR...so a raise this year is out of the question, because the company won't g...

I got called the N word today and it hurt because it was true I live in a small town and my ma and I are the only black people for miles around. And I fit most of the stereotypes. I'm lazy. I'm stupid. I'm 25M and working at a grocery store as a checker. I went to a known SJW college and got a useless degree that won't...

I hate people who are disabled and are quadriplegic. It’s like caring for a 200lb baby. I’ve been caring for a whole slew of Veterans, old elderly men with disabilities and some who can’t even accomplish basic activities like feeding or even breathing on their own for almost five years. My bones ache from pushing and p...

Does anybody else feel sad checking others Snapchat stories? Especially when it’s on the weekend where everyone likes to parade their fake lives and make it seem like they party every night? While you’re at home in bed watching other people have fun?

Benzo Withdrawal Who else is experiencing benzo withdrawal? I had my dose of Valium cut 25% and I am really feeling it today.

This seems like enough Throwaway for obvious reasons. I can feel the air around me grow stale and dark as the knowledge sets upon me that I've truly had enough at this point. I've tried so hard and I've tried everything and I've only succeeded in embarrassing myself time and time again. I can't live like this anymore...

Anyone else pretend they’re having a conversation with someone in their head about your depression? I know this probably sounds crazy, but sometimes I fantasize talking to someone about my depression because I’ve never opened up to anyone about it before and I wish I could.

I'm not strong enough to live and I never will be I'm 17 and I know I haven't "really lived" yet, but that's the point, I can't do it. I've been through years of therapy and there's no more help for me, because I am the problem, I'm a weak and sensitive little bitch. And that will never change. I have nothing left wor...
