"Mental, mental; chicken oriental!"

So I've created this for purely myself as a place to jot down my shit when I need to get it out!
It's a private blog but in a public domain. If you find it and want to read it, thats your choice. I'm not writing for your entertainment so don't expect bangs and whizzes!

History so far:

It's 22/09/10 today. I have suffered depression for approx last 18 months.
I've spent a good year on Venlafaxine beginning at 75mg and upping eventually to 150mg daily. They helped me for so long but after 2 months of work, going back was one hell of a shock to my system and I could feel them no longer working. I was beginning to fall apart publically and not just privately anymore. A higher dosage would mean more problems with drowsiness and the feelings of constant exhaustion were not helping with my current situation at all.

My doc changed me over to Citalopram 10mg with instruction to double dosage after 1 week.
I wondered if this dosage was right. 150mg to 10mg???? What could this tiny pill do?
Well I soon found out just how small but mighty it was.....
