Hi, Dyna What do you mean by breaking free? I know that sometimes I need to get away , be alone to gather my thoughts or to reflect, or is it more serious? I hope not
suicidal thoughts. Beleive me the meds are not miracle workers, don't expect them to be, like I thought. Talk with someone. Do you have a therpist? Seek out a trusted friend. Perhaps a job change is in order, prepare yourself. On difficult days, don't tackle
complex stuff, do something different, try to do something easy till you get over that hump. I hope this helps. Peace & Blessings - Danny G.
