Dear Abasaki,
I'm sorry that you are stuck right now in depression and the other stuff that is going on.
A good pdoc can give you a mood stabilizer that will help with depression.
What I am trying to say is that Anti-depressants are not your only choice. Mood stabilzers can do the job too.
Also, mood stabilzers kind of keep the anti-depressant under control -- keeps the patient from getting manic but still lets the patient benefit from the antidepressants.
I'm not sure it that made sense.
Know that we are trying to help.
The problem with waiting to go to the ER when you are already in crisis, is that when a person is in mania, they do not think clearly -- they do not know that they are having a problem.
The timing is tricky.
M.
