depression symptoms over divorce

I have been diagnosed with depression and depersonalization since my divorce in January. Prior to this I have always had OCD since I could remember. Obsesive thoughts being the most stressful over the years. I am currently on Paxil (2wks) and Luvox (1 wk). Since last October when I found out I was going to get divorced and have to leave my kids and home I have had all kinds of problems emotionally and mentally.

After seeing my boyfriend last night and talking about why I haven't heard from him the last few days, he told me he's been "in a funk" and feeling kind of low. His parents have been separated for the last year and are now going through with a full divorce. His father had a talk with him about the divorce a couple days ago and as a result he's concerned his mother won't receive any benefits when the split becomes final.

hai i just went through a divorce with my husband,,..he chaeats on me,..and marry the girl whose hes beeen havinng an affair with,...its really hard for me,....i cant let go my anger,..what should i do??help pleaseee,..

I am so sorry about your divorce and your depression and guilt over the relapsing, but you can do this. These pills aren't going to do anything but make you feel worse and they will eventually get worse. Please stop taking them and go talk to someone...it helps so much to talk to a counselor. I know you can do it because I've seen much worse stories on here than yours and they are now living happy and healthy lives.

oh yes i been having the cramps and pain all over my body for months it feels like a illness and you will die everyday i been having this since nov i get the headache weak all over body weakness cramps in arms legs pain in finger cant think mind is always thinking illness its so bad i still am having a hard time beliving its anxiety makeing so much symdoms all over the body

I have been depression free for nearly a decade. Besides leading a productive life and taking medications, my wife kept me always happy because she understood me and we were simply happy. I do however have general anxiety disorder and other symptoms caused by it. But recently my wife left me. She now wants divorce and we have to go to court for child custody. Her leaving has shocked me. The depression is crushing me like never before.

Now that I am facing several stressful issues (divorce, job change, family, depression/anxiety), I am getting more frequent outbreaks. I finally saw another doctor who didn't just try to put off my worries and actually got me the test. It came back as "positive" for IgG. I also wonder if there is any recourse for my doctor's misleading diagnosis. Perhaps it's just misplaced anger over the situation but I feel Iike I should have been told long ago. Please help.

My kids are very young, one is three and the other will be a year old in a couple of weeks. My divorce was final in June and I took the split up very hard. I checked into a mental hospital in may and got out and the end of June. You may not get to see them every day but instead of brooding over it please try something positive. Make them something from your heart to be given to them when you see them again. It is better than buying them something.

There could be deep stressors in that experience that is triggering your depression. The best way to determine if this is truly depression (i.e., brain chemistry), you should see a psychologist or a psychiatrist. They have certain tests that can pinpoint a depression.... In any case, it may not be a bad idea to talk to someone like a therapist....

To be honest, you sound like yes, you are having symptoms of depression and anxiety. Covid can have after symptoms but for someone that has had covid twice, I wouldn't go there to think you do. There are other things going on and a history with you that would make me think more mental health. What CAN you do? Well, what about digging into the mental health aspect? A psychologist who does dbt/cbt therapy?

Hi, it sounds like it could be sinusitis but anxiety and depression can also cause the weirdest symptoms, take it from someone who knows, i went through it for 2 years around the age of 22. I also had panic attacks and started to feel scared of everything health/death related. I also used to get lightheadedness and odd headaches which were caused by the anxiety.

Well me and my husband have been married for 5years we have a 2year old girl that gives me hope everytime iam down she is my strength. Well iam now pregnant with our Son and m Over the moon. The problem is my husband told my parents in front of our Paster and my self that hé doesnt love me and my daughter his reason was ik dont bring anything to the table as i was studing to open my own beautician business.

My husband kicked me out yesterday. He said he wants a divorce because he doesnt love me anymore. This is all so sudden, and a shock to me, because i thought we had a great marriage. My question is, i want to move outside the country, im 7 months. My question is can i fly on plane across the ocean when im 7 months? Can he sue me for kidnapping his child even though he's not born yet?

I was diagnosed with Chronic Depression Disorder back in the beginning of May after a visit to the psych hospital. Since then, I have been on 20mg of Fluoxetine (Prozac) 1x daily. I've had ups and downs since taking it. Some days I feel great, others I feel ok, some days I think I am borderline manic, and - as of recent - I have been feeling down. I had a minor panic attack last week for no apparent reason. I woke up about 2 am, and just had an attack.

I have went throught a divorce before and it sent me into mania and then depression. There aer many types of depression as well as many ways of treating it. You likely already know that. Unfortunately certain things in life are hard to deal with than others like divorce, loneliness, loss, and grief. The good thing is that as long as you are still living you have the opportunity to rewrtie this chapter of your book and see that it was a positive thing.

I have sky high blood pressure, asthma and panic attacks. I have 2 children, one handicapped, stoke at 8 months. I am 40 and divorce 2x.What the hell is wrong with me?

Dear dot218, Over the internet without ability to evaluate including physical examination it is impossible for us to say what is causing your symptoms. It is best to have this checked by your doctor who can ask questions, and examine.

I have had depression and anxiety since age 18 so dont think its just cause of divorce..not living w husband has brought more peace to my life. but of course divorce the legal part is stressful I have read and read...Dr says maybe I may be bi-polar type 2..along w the anxiety depression which I guess is part of bi-polar 2...so why am I not on seroquel (sp?) also I have been on xanax ( prescribed by family dr) for years since I was early twentys I am 48 now) ..

I am currently going through a divorce. Since separating from my husband, I have lost about 10 lbs even though I have made no changes to my eating/activity level. 10 lbs is a significant weight loss for me since I have a very small frame. Also, the panic attcks I have sufferred from for many years have increased. I know that weight loss can accompany other depressive symptoms, but can someone please explain to me what is physically going on in my body that causes this to happen?

Your dreams aren't shattered. They just need adjusting. Life can throw you a curveball. My girlfriend lost her leg below the knee in a motorcycle accident a couple years ago. Up until then, she danced, played squash, golfed, rode a bike, travelled and did all sorts of things and did most of those things with her partner. It has been a slow recovery for her and painful.

You need to get into therapy, where you can learn how to deal with all you've been through, and move on. This doesn't mean you have to take medication that is always up to the individual, but it may help you get through this period while in therapy. We all wish we could do this alone, but sometimes things are just too much for us, and we need help which may include medication along with the therapy. You have all the symptoms of depression, and it can be debilitating.

Situational depression occurs during a traumatic event in one's life. For example a divorce, loss of a loved one, loss of job, serious financial issues. Most people recover with time, others seem to just slip further into depression and need to seek professional help. Therapy can help with this type of depression as well. Hope this helps.

I will talk to my doctor next week I am scared of myself because I feel like I can't control myself and driven by emotions. My husband won't give me a divorce and has all the money. I've tried to seek help find any way to make money from home as childcare is not an option right now I just feel hopeless like there's no way out.

No offense, but it's really hard to read what you have written - are you deeply depressed and want to get out of your marriage? Are you looking for advice about your depression or about how to get a divorce? If it's about divorce, you should talk with a lawyer.

I was taking pristiqe for depression and anxiety I'm 6 wks today and as soon as I found out I was pregnant the Dr. Made me switch over to Zoloft for depression. I've heard nothing but horrible things about Zoloft. Is there anyone that has takin it during their pregnancy? What is your opinion and experience?

hmmm! well i am not sure if extremely hungry or extremely tired has anything to do with diabetes or not. I cannot believe your ex husband does not care about your sons health. He should get that checked out as soon as possible. Is he into sports? or maybe get him to join some after school activities and try to maintain a healthy lifestyle. You are the MOM and you should have a say so in what is good for your son. Don't listen to your ex. Step in and take charge.
