I am now on no meds which some pepole think is stupid but for me I'd rather have a low grade depression than mania any day.It's weird that it does this right? It is supposed to be a mood stabilizer after all?? so much for that. Right now, I'm not irritable/angry, so I guess we'll see. People don't seem to expect this from this drug.
weird stuff> I understand how you feel. I'm not sure why I'm so affected by moods. Today I'm sick with a cold and feel really weird, depressed, out of touch with reality, hopeless, hoping the 5-htp kicks in soon.
depression can really just knock me over sometimes. I hope it doesn't last long for you.
did antidepressants ever help you?
> I hope you feel better soon, I'm sure you will, tomorrow maybe.thanks, yeah I am better, but I wonder if the meds are worse than the disease, or if the disease is just a consequence of the meds.
feel better soon,
sid
