Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Alzheimer's / January 2006About Julian
Hello All, I have been lurking for quite a while just to see how everyone is getting on. It was I who emailed Julian's friend from one of the previous Julian posts. I first received an email saying that indeed Julian had taken his life at midnight. I take it this person is not with Julian and hears the news from others. A while later I got another email saying that Julian had just over dosed on medicine in an attempt. At that time Julian was in hospital supposedly recovering. The person Matti also said he/she would be returning to Italy in the morning and will update me IF he hears anything more and has internet access. That's all I know. I will post more if I hear anything. The Cranky Genee > Hello All, > [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > > The Cranky Genee ======================== Thanks for the update. I'm so glad to know Jules is recuperating.  SignatureJohn Inzer Genee, I wrote Matti also, but didn't hear from him/her. Gwen > Hello All, > [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > > The Cranky Genee Gwen and Genee, I heard from Jules last night and once again this morning, so it seems he is really on the mend, thank goodness! He is a sweet guy, having a bit of bad luck in relationship matters right now, and I hope that knowing that many of us here care about him will help him through. Regards, Evelyn > Genee, I wrote Matti also, but didn't hear from him/her. > Gwen [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] >> >> The Cranky Genee I can't believe what i am reading. I found it strange that Julian said goodby. Really did not understand well the meaning of his goodby post, evidently because i did not think he was sad. Depression is a killer. I suffered three major episodes in a decade and was hospitalized. Medicine stopped it and have been well for another decade. The holidays bring a lot of depression in many, whichever the reason is... decrease in natural light, stress... Julian, my love, i feel you drink too much. Alcohol is a depressant. Take it easy. I read all your posts and links and enjoy you. Life is sometimes sad but it is also sometimes wonderful and peaceful. There is not just one door, when one closes another opens. You'll get over this. You are a wonderful loving and lovable person. Your grandpa needs you. Get well and come back to the group and keep sharing with us. Happy 2006! This is so sad. So glad he is doing better. Hoping things start looking better for him. This is difficult because my sister is also having a rough time. Some medication (hormone based) and other issues leave her periodically so low she has been suicidal but not acted on it. She doesn't want to try antidepressants because she has had a bad reaction to one she tried. Like me, we seem to get more side effects than most people. But my depression has never been so severe as to leave me suicidal. Julian - if you are lurking - You are a worthwhile and good person. Adelle > Gwen and Genee, > [quoted text clipped - 26 lines] >>> >>> The Cranky Genee Adelle, tell your sister to try another medication. I went into a spin in early 2005 due work related stress (we ended up in a 3 1/2 month long strike) compounded by weight loss. I was absolutely in a knot - couldn't eat, couldn't sleep. The first antidepressant they tried on me was effexor, supposedly the one they use to bring just about anyone back from the brink with few of the unpleasant side effects like weight gain. Not only did it not make me better, it made me MORE anxious. Not having been through anything quite like this before, it took me a while to figure out that despite the fact I wasn't at work, I wasn't improving and in fact was feeling worse (more wound up than ever). I was switched to another medication (zoloft), and poof, much, much better within a few weeks. You have to give a few a try, and since they often take a few weeks to work, be willing to hang in to see if anything improves, if there are side effects, and if the side effects pass off with time.
