Today so far... I had to get this out

[rustee2011]

Morning - Feel a bit spaced out so far today. Did my exercises now having my brekkie. My brekkie usually consists of: 4 slices of toasted oatmeal bread with butter and orange and ginger marmalade. I wait a little bit before I take my metformin, as I dont like taking my meds close together. I take one for hypertension, another for depression and multivitamins. The order is as follows

5 - 6am - take the anti-depressant
6 - 7 - Multivitamin and around 15 mins later hypertension
7.30 - 8am - breakfast

then a little while after metformin. I know I am none too pleased that I had to go back on antis, however, I have rationaled that I only take three different tablets. My friend what has had type 2 for 15 years takes 8 different tablets per day. I am slowly but surely getting there. Bear with me, as soon as I got used to the idea and accepted I have diabetes...depression came in to knock me down.

Have my blood test later at 11am, hopefully that will clarify things in the short term. On another note, that friend who upset me yesterday, said I should have an MRI scan to see if I am clinically depressed, if it's down to chemical imbalance. He contradicts himself, the other day he said clinically depressed people had, wait for it BRAIN DAMAGE..........I ASK YOU!

What an awful thing to say, people have so little understanding of MH. I tend not to say much and the people who know me well know how I am and they understand.

You are so correct, however, he is the type of person who likes to shoot down people's confidence. Then claim he wants to help people to empower them. I doubt that very much and he contradicts himself so much

Personally I would not say much to this person, Think anything they say would only upset you.  Sounds like they have their own issues.

Take care.
