Why is there such a stigma attached to taking medication for depression? I am ashamed to admit to friends and family that I am am being medicated and have been medicated for years. I have told only my family members who I think would benefit from medication. (I'm convinced that depression runs in my family)
Answer:
Yeah I know the feeling. I tried to be extremely honest about my depression and I take 40 mgs of paxil a day. But after I told a few people, like you said everyone ask did you forget your med Like now I'm not allowed to have a bad day Paxil cures everything!!!!. They just don't understand the medication and its benefits. Been on this medication for 4 years and probably will be the rest of my life. The problem you describe below is almost universal. When I first started taking Prozak a friend, who is really very broad-minded, said something like, "Well, if I walk in and find you and your two cockatiels dead, I'll know why." All this has long since been patched up, but there's a concrete example which proves you're not alone in this. Recently someone in the group also pointed out that lots of posters are using anonymous servers when writing to this NG. I am in the same postion at work. I am a nursing assistant, but there is a lot of bitching that goes on. I have had to have a lot of time off due to dep' but have found myself making excuses like my diabetes is out of controll but it the end I thought fuck them well most of them I have told the important people and the ones that I trust, because dep' isn't something to be ashamed of it is a condition like a cold or athritis it isn't something that only 'crack-pots' suffer from. So if people go on about you taking your meds tell them 'no and I think I am going to kill you' if they have my sense of humour then they will realise that anyone can have a bad day and it isn't dependent on wether you have taken your meds'. Yes I have had the same problem. When I had my first bad balt of depression about 6 years ago, I hid it from my co-worker and blamed the stay in the hopital on something else. This time I started to fall into the void, I was honest with people because I was not ashamed of it anymore. I was getting help and getting back on meds and I knew I would be find. I thought the more people knew that it could happen to anyone that the myths and misconseptions would be gone. Boy was I wrong. I almost lost my job over the whole thing. They did move me to a new dept. but kept saying it was not discrimation.
