I've been very happy with http://www.saveoncanadianmeds.com/

It's back to the old, "if I have to take meds, I must be just weak or something" bullshit that good old Protestant American culture sticks most people in the US with.

I was raised with that, especially for things like depression. It got to the point that it didn't matter. I needed the meds to function. The more science learns about it though, the more it's being approached as a medical problem like any other disease. Based on what I've read, it's genetic. *hugs*

Yeah, thats probably the one I'll be using, once I get new prescriptions.

Thanks.

hiya xt. -hugs-
first, i think the depression and anxiety just seem worse in comparison because you've actually been feeling well. it's frustrating and annoying and depressing to have a relapse, sure. i try to get reality checks from my friends. "would a normal person be feeling depressed about having cancer?" LOL ( ... )

Light box - yeah ... but it's frigging August! it's in storage! Blah.

I guess I'll have to drag the think out whenever it rains. meh.

and yeah, Im trying to get back on my higher dosage, which, of course, takes a week or more to take effect.

I'll be dragging my butt to teh gym today in hopes that some good old fashioned exersize will help.

And thanks for the words... always good to hear.
