Hey Morgan,
I think I understand what you're talking about. I just posted on psycho-social babble about how hard and depressing in itself "feeling better" can be, it's a lot of responsibility and sometimes I wonder if depression has been like a security blanket for me--it's one thing in life I know really, really well--who would I be without it? I haven't a clue. It *is* scary.
I don't think you're "just feeling sorry for yourself." I really believe that if you feel bad for a good amount of time, some stressor(s)(internal or external), belief systems, and/or brain chemistry are causing it.
I had the same experience on Paxil, only one of the reasons I quit taking it. My mind felt old and blurry and disjointed on it.
