(((((Lisa)))))) I have not heard of agomelatine...I looked up the trade name and don't recognize that either. Maybe not approved for use here yet. It looks promising though...and no weight gain or sleep disturbance side effects according to what I read. I hope this one is able to pull you out of the darkness and allows you to live life more fully. I was happy to hear that you were able to get together with friends one day; that's a great thing. Keep on fighting...keep doing those little positive things and one day they will make a difference.

(((((( Lisa )))))))))))))))))
Yesterday I felt a little better and had some friends over for a little while but today the same old blackness is back. No matter how much I try to do things to make me feel better and keep busy and positive, the depression always sucks me back down again.


Made me smile to know you had friends over. Although the depression got back into the picture, you tried, you are still trying! Good for you!!!

Lets us know how it goes with the agomelatine..please and ty.

Keep the fight going.

Perhaps, (((( Lisalou )))), you might try the " virtual reality " experience of Welshness, that can be experienced wherever you might be. ( Rather than the actual experience of Welshness, which can only be experienced, by either being actually Welsh, or at least being in Wales. 8) )

1. Play rugby with your four nearest neighbours, and lose most of the time... :cry: :wink:

2. Play football, ( See above. :cry: :wink: )

3. Ask a friend/neighbour, etc to spray a very fine mist of water from a garden hose onto you to simulate a Welsh Winter.

4. Ask a friend/neighbour, etc to spray a very fine mist of water from a garden hose onto you to simulate a Welsh Spring.

5. Ask a friend/neighbour, etc to spray a very fine mist of water from a garden hose onto you to simulate a Welsh Summer.

6. Ask a friend/neighbour, etc to spray a very fine mist of water from a garden hose onto you to simulate a Welsh Autumn. ( OK, the Welsh climate isn't, quite, that bad! :lol: )

7. Experience a certain basic insecurity...( As a Welsh TV comedian said on a programme broadcast on Saint David's day this year, the Welsh do have a certain insecurity. Afterall, we're not as suave as the English 8) , and we're not as fierce as the the Scots :x ...

8. Notwithstanding 1-7, be discreetly, if ever-so-slightly smugly, convinced that CYMRU AM BYTH/ WALES IS NO 1!

( PS Did I mention how modest the Welsh are?! :lol: :roll: )

The agomelatine is a very new drug indeed,it's only been approved for use a few months ago. I start it Monday, am still phasing out the mirtazipine. Have been quite a mess the last couple of days, very low and listless and hopeless. My psychiatrist has been phoning me to check i am safe but to be honest i am so low i don't even have the drive or motivation for suicide. My relationship with mark is suffering because i am too drained and irritable to maintain conversation or to be able to face being with people much. He is very busy and away from home a lot at the moment. I'm secretly quite glad but know deep down that it's not good for me to be isolating so much and be alone with such dark thoughts. trouble is there's not a lot i fancy doing.

I did really appreciate your guide to achieving Welshness though, Tacking! Maybe I should take your advice and accept this gift that keeps giving! After all, some are born Welsh, some achieve being Welsh and some have Welshness thrust upon them.....!

((((((Lisa)))))) I am sorry you are so low and listless but am happy to hear you are going to keep yourself safe. That's nice of your psychiatrist to check on you. If it's nice where you are today, try to step outside and breathe in some lovely fresh air and get some Vitamin D from the sun. Maybe even sit out there for a bit. I hope this new drug turns out to be a charm for you. One of these drugs MUST work!
