hi....

   Hi Teri! I'm not sure if I have allergy but that is what the doctor said about me. Right now my rhinitis is getting worse and it really makes me feel more and more depress. I already have a depression (although I haven't been able to seek professional help) and this rhinitis just makes me more and more depress. I don't know if it's really rhinitis or acute sinusitis, but whatever it is, it's making me more and more sick at myself. I just feel like everything about my life sucks, I know it kinda sound crazy, maybe I am..Thanks for your time....

Hi Teri, the doctor that i went to gave me a nasal spray called Budecort and a tablet named Cetirizin and the other one I don't really know. Somehow it works when I took it last year when my severe rhinitis or whatever it is attack me, but somehow the physical effect of the rhinitis did not disappear, like the kind of swelling look of my nose. I have to admit I did not finish the whole medication bec. I got scared of going to the doctor bec. I always end up spending a thousand pesos everytime I go there. And now, my rhinitis return and it 's making me more and more miserable, I just feel like I always end up on the losing end. Just when I thought I'm gonna be okey I end up suffering again,it really sucks. For 17 yrs. I've been feeling down, although I haven't been to a doctor about it bec. I don't think we have a psychiatrist here in our town, and things are just getting bad for me.
By the way I am from the Philippines and I'm sorry if my English is not that good.Thanks for your time...

I just went to the doctor last Monday and he gave me the nasal spray Budecort,a capsule named Cloxacillin and a small tablet I cannot figure out the name, he told me to return after 10 days which I don't have plan of doing, I just spent 1,600 pesos for that one time visit. I admit my depression is like getting worse, since I was 13 I already have this feeling of constant sadness, crying almost every night and just feel like I will never be happy for the rest of my life. Last year I suddenly feel good about myself, I started going out with my friends and having fun, I join family reunions and do stuff that I normally would not do. I even thought of going back to college, which is my biggest frustration, but suddenly it all ends when my rhinitis came. I just feel like, God won't allow me to be happy, I'm already feeling good maybe not that great but at least I was gaining confidence but then suddenly something bad happen to me, it really sucks! I know I sound lame, shallow and stupid about feeling depress because of my rhinitis and I wish I am not, I wish I am not this crazy, stupid or whatever...Thanks a lot for listening to a complete stranger like me, I truly appreciate it....
