15+ months on Lex, currently at 30mg. DX - depression and PMDD.

Before Lex - I was a MESS!!! Insomnia, road rage in a little town w/no traffic, customer service job where I wanted to rip everybody's head off, and wanting to *kill* my dear husband for breathing!

NOW = I am mgmt. at Kmart! They have cut payroll so much I can't cover the schedule with the bodies I have available. It's so bad that some days I have only myself scheduled all day, and 2 part timers in the evening for my half of the store. I get this memo saying that me and my *team* are to begin spending 2-4 hours daily doing detail maintenance and cleaning on top of all the other regular duties. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry as I looked around for this *team* they refer to and only see ME! On top of that, I have been placed on 90 day probation because I can't seem to get the job done.

Old me would have curled up in a ball, beat myself up for being so incompetent, and believe that I was worthless and they should go ahead and fire me now.

New me - I went and got my mousy hair colored and styled, getting a perm in 3 days, have an appointment to get my chewed to the quick nails done, I bought a new suit and got my resume updated. I already have 2 interviews scheduled and I'm getting out of that HADES HOLE ASAP!

Have been with the CO. 13+ years and I'm no Spring Chicken, fast approaching 50. My husband thinks I am crazy for wanting to give up my salary (which I must admit is pretty decent, we live well on it and he doesn't have to work), he thinks I should hang in there and try to make it through the probation and keep the job.

I am of a different mind set now, I just want to be FREE from the RIDICULOUSNESS @ the Big K! I just can not believe the strenght I feel and the positive attitude I have maintained and I attribute it ALL to Lexapro!!!~~~8|8
