I`m sorry - I seem to be all over this site.But, I just want to ask for any feedback on how to `tell` when a med is working or not.
I`ve been on my current combo for 7 weeks now, and over the past week or so, I have had about 3 evenings where I`ve felt a bit better. Prior to this, `good` times were very infrequent, e.g. one good day every 2 months. The depression was pretty much wall-to-wall. The hospital where I am being treated have asked me to keep a chart of how my mood is with ratings out of ten. This is divided into Morning, Afternoon, Evening and Night-time. Last w/end I had a `7/10`, a `8/10` and a `5/10` on 3 consecutive evenings. This is as opposed to straight `0/10`s in the past (maybe a `2` or a `3` if I was particularly lucky).
Could this be the beginning of a response? Obviously no-one knows for sure, but ...
I`d be grateful for any feedback.
Ta,
Anna.
