I'm old enough to be your Mother and I have a 41 yr old daughter. Your story breaks my heart because I can relate to it so much! My family and I have been through 2+ years of living hell. Depression, suicidal thinking, sleep terrors/vivid dreams that wouldn't go away, exhaustion from lack of sleep, impossible to get out of bed because of the exhaustion, etc, etc. I found this great site and another one the first part of April 2008 after the FDA news about Singulair. I was amazed to be reading my own story written by others. Thank God because I thought I must be losing my mind. While I wasn't working outside my home I had a 20hr a week computer job at home that helped a lot. I was however unable to think and to function so couldn't work. Getting dressed was too much. Deciding what or if to eat was too much. Finding this site helped me realize I wasn't the only one who was going through living hell. I cut my self off from the outside world because I couldn't explain to someone else what my problem was when I didn't know myself. After reading the stories I stopped taking Singulair on April 6, 2008. The symptoms started melting away! It was like a miracle. Whether it was related or not I don't know but all I had were a few mild headaches after stopping...no major withdrawl. I'm not 100% and I'm not sure what happens yet. Still in a bit of a wait and see mode. Not sure what my normal is anymore. It isn't much fun being unpaid lab rats, is it!? God bless you...
