Feeling frustrated

Posted by Bishop on January 25, 2005 at 11:06:41:

I am just very frustrated right now. I have come a long way, and I am so thankful that atleast the light is starting to shine at the end of the tunnel. I am currently on Remeron, I feel the drug is almost finished its usefulness on me as on the weekends I sleep pretty solidly without it. I would not mind staying on Remeron but the daytime effects are just brutal, plus I tend to have sleep onset insomnia when I am on it. I know it is almost purely mental since on the weekends I can do fine without it, but during the weekday I need it to keep me asleep. It is debateable as to if my quality of life is better on Remeron than off Remeron. I have pretty much stopped taking meds other than Remeron, st john's wart and melatonin. Overall I am very thankful that I have come so far, my anxiety is almost non existent and other things in my life are starting to progress in the right direction. Maybe I am being to greedy to fast and hoping for a full recovery right now, but it is only human to dream. I know alot of people are in a much worse place than I am and to those who are I can only offer up myself as a reasonable example of almost recovered. Please hang in there I never thought things would progress to the point they are now for me but they have. What is the secret to the road to recovery? I honestly do not know, all I can say is that reducing anxiety is probally the biggest factor, also doing a little bit everyday to achieve a ambitious dream helped me lots. Thanks for listening, it helps me greatly.

Regards
