Read diary

Only now, I am on no anti-depressants. I came off them over the winter because I felt they were not helping but rathering hindering me in many ways. Mostly, they affected my ability to perform my job. My job requires complex thinking (I work in the IT industry in software app development) and I began to notice this when I returned to work after a lay-off ..now that they are out of my system, I notice a complete difference and can think like I used too. However, all the emotional and personal issues I deal with are still here..they just stay hidden from 9 to 5. I can't believe I came on this board about 3 years now... and my life is still as miserable today. I do not believe in meds anymore, and I figure sometimes the bad things that happen to you take their toll and no medication or therapy will ever take away the result of that.
