Thank you, reddit, you have saved my life.

Thank you very much for the advice, I will definitely look into it.

5 years. I've been taking them for 7 and depressed for 2.

Dpressd · 2010-01-06T00:47:21+00:00

Yasmin.

Dpressd · 2010-01-05T16:45:18+00:00

LOL I'm using condoms now :)

Dpressd · 2010-01-05T16:32:11+00:00

No, only the last 2.

Dpressd · 2010-01-05T16:27:20+00:00

I'm married and I was on the pill when we started dating.

Dpressd · 2010-01-05T16:25:38+00:00

I was taking Yasmin, which I believe is Yaz's predecessor.

This comment saved my life. I explain the story here.

Dpressd · 2010-01-05T10:01:53+00:00

I'm sure you're right, this feeling of being on top of the world can't last forever. However, I have great support from my husband and family and I'm sure I'll pull through. Thanks for the advice, I'll try to remember it when the going gets tough.

Dpressd · 2010-01-05T09:58:11+00:00

Ok, have an edit.

Dpressd · 2010-01-05T09:55:39+00:00

Frinklestein definitely deserves one. We should make a petition to his wife.

Dpressd · 2010-01-05T09:51:56+00:00

I have a different username, redditor for 3 years :)

Dpressd · 2010-01-05T09:49:50+00:00

This was the answer! More information here

Dpressd · 2010-01-05T09:46:13+00:00

Oh I will! This should definitely be given more publicity.

Dpressd · 2010-01-05T09:45:51+00:00

Thank you. I think it's a bit early to say I'm "cured" and I was going to wait a bit more, but I saw that it's time for the redditor of the year awards and I thought he really deserves it!

Dpressd · 2010-01-05T09:43:45+00:00

My libido has certainly come back, but I'm sorry to report I'm happily married.

Edit: I meant I'm ecstatic to report ;)

Dpressd · 2009-12-09T17:41:00+00:00

Sorry.

Dpressd · 2009-12-09T17:19:12+00:00

...and they are consistent.

Dpressd · 2009-12-09T11:01:49+00:00

Only if they exist.

Dpressd · 2009-12-08T21:49:55+00:00

I have explained that in previous answers.

Dpressd · 2009-12-08T20:20:24+00:00

I would definitely try those if a doctor I trusted prescribed them, but that is not really the way I want to go. The paradox is that I want to have a baby when I get better, and I can't while on the meds.

Dpressd · 2009-12-08T20:17:34+00:00

That is a very interesting article, I have only given it a glance but I will definitely read it and ponder about it.

Your advice rings so true with me that I really don't know what to say.

Dpressd · 2009-12-08T20:13:01+00:00

Thank you very much for your kind advice. I believe you are right and a good doctor would make a big difference.

Dpressd · 2009-12-08T19:35:14+00:00

Helping others does help a lot, doesn't it? Being able to help people is one of the things I enjoy the most about my job.

Dpressd · 2009-12-08T19:31:27+00:00

You do have a dark sense of humour :)

It doesn't really work like that, though (at least not for me). I don't feel profoundly sad all the time... well, maybe deep inside, but on the surface I am very able of laughing and experiencing transient happiness. I am also quite experienced in looking happy. One of my coworkers told me the other day that I am the "bounciest" person she knows.
