I think the Effexor is Helping

I got a new doctor, thank goodness. He is nicer than my old one and less intimidating. Easier to talk to. I did not bring up the DID. The only thing I would admit to is depression and PTSD. He prescribed Effexor for me. Effexor is supposed to work on 2 chemicals in my brain instead of just one, and I"m praying that THIS will be the medication that will actually work for me. No other med has really helped too much, even Wellbutrin, which really fizzled out after a while. I think the Effexor is helping me a little bit already. The past 2 days, when it was time to get up in the morning, I was actually ready to get up. Yesterday and today I have actually been in a good mood, instead of feeling so oppressed inside. I laughed a little bit at a joke I heard on the radio yesterday too....that is really rare these days. So I am hopeful, and praying that God will allow this Effexor to be the thing that will finally help.
