I thought it was a good title to start a discussion with other members. I am feeling really irriratable of late. I am worried my depression is on its way back. I have to look at ways at managing and expressing my feelings. Its so hard to get the words out and to express what is happening for me.

I had been going off slowly but I have stopped completely. I feel sick in the stomach and very irritable. I just rang my GP and hoping she calls back. I went out yesterday and did my volunteering work...
When I started the medication I started very slowly. I have stopped a lot quicker then when I started the med and I was very slow to increase.
Thank you for your support and understanding. Take care sis. How far away is Cairns from you?
