Hi all,
Well I am in desperate needs of prayer/comfort. I was traveling for my summer job when I got sick. Due to long work hours. I have still been sick for 3 weeks and it's only gotten worse in that time. I started on antibiotics Friday, but due to my schedule/stress/etc I also stopped taking my medicine (Zoloft). Today, I feel so crazy and sick that I had to take Zoloft again to stop having these withdrawal symptoms. I don't know what to do, I just feel completely lost/pathetic. My fear of dying has returned. I have the program but don't have motivation to start/focus on it. Please help if you've ever felt this bad.
Need a prayer

Hi there,
I have been there, I have felt that bad before. I was so sick due to my busy schedule at work that I kept missing work. My IBS acted up so badly that I was in so much pain it was hard to even leave my house. I've been in a similar position as you before. All I can say, is try to take a little time off from everthing, if at all possible. Try to ween yourself off of the zoloft if that's what you think is best for you. Don't just stop taking it all together. Do what your doctor is telling you to do. The withdrawal effects are horrible, but they aren't going to kill you and they will eventually subside. Just take a little time off and get better, recover. Lay around and watch funny movies and have some comfort food. Once you are feeling better you won't feel so lost and pathetic. I know that when I'm sick I feel lost and pathetic too. So just do something that makes u happy, relax, and use the relaxation CD. I hope this maybe helped a little bit. I wish you luck and health. I'll pray for you.

Hello,
I will definitely pray for you. Please know that you will get better. Right now you are having negative thoughts that are causing your feelings. I too get scared of death when I am dealing with anxiety and depression. I had it so bad one time that was all I thought 24/7 for nine months! I finally got on the right meds and it took those thoughts away because I was starting to feel better. If you feel you need to take the Zoloft again, it's not big deal. You will get off of them again, it just might take longer than you wanted to. Be compassionate and kind to yourself right now. Restart the program or continue with the program. You will get better, this too shall pass.
