> I have that problem, too. It is so wearing. I find myself feeling exhausted over things that haven't even happened. I recently switched back to Celexa because I think it helped somewhat with thoughts like that. It also helped anxiety. My doctor has gotten me started on meditation. It is supposed to help me separate my "self" from my thoughts. He says this has helped a lot of people with problems like mine. I wish you luck. I sympathize with what you go through. Take care of yourself, please.
Kerry and Cass, I have a problem with such thoughts too. In addition to meds, are you receiving talk therapy for this? Replacing negative thoughts with positive thoughts takes a lot of practice; a therapist might be able to help you by giving you feedback about various thinking errors that might be contributing to this and how to build your self-esteem. (At least that's my hope, as I struggle with the same problem!!). Hang in there.--Cindy W
