Hi Rose!
Welcome to the recovery forum!
The addict in my life just had a very bad experience with the anti-depressant, Paxil, so I am perhaps a little biased. I'd think that for those of us dealing with people who are using mind altering drugs, the last thing we'd want to do is join them if we don't have to. If you've tried fixing your diet, getting regular exercise and rest (I know that's the tough one with an addict in the house)... if you've tried punching bags, prayer and the joke-a-day web pages... then maybe.
You must have some basis for thinking the drug you took may not be good for you. Did you have side effects?
Maybe you could give your alanon meetings a little more time before you give in to chemicals. And when you get angry... POST! Scream, spew, rant, rave, complain, kvetch.... we've all been there. We all sympathize and we DO want to hear it! I can't tell you what having this message board to come to has done for my mood.
Keep posting!
