I've been writing to this board off and on for about a year now. I have been through many meds in the past year trying to find one for my depression. Finally I thought I found one in Celexa. I have been on it for about 5 months. For the first 2 months it was fantastic, I was on top of the world, never felt better. But for the past 3 months, it just seemed to stop working. Yesterday I went to the pdoc and after a year of evaluating me, she really thinks I have bipolar (II?). Before I was just being treated for severe depression and panic disorder. I don't even know what to think or even what this is. I am going to change meds to Effexor, and then possibly add a mood stabilizer. I don't know what to expect from either. I would appreciate any advice on bipolar II or mood stabilizers or any past experiences with this disorder.
Thank you so much. I am a bit scared at this realization, although I don't know at what.
