In reply to Help. I am getting into bad time of year SUICIDE, posted by Mandy on March 15, 2003, at 16:58:46
> I have over dosed in May for the past two years, last year was quite severe. I have seen several docs and noone agrees on whether or not I am bipolar or just resistant depression. I am now taking 20 mg lexapro, 200mg seroquel and doc just started on 4 mg gabitril. I do not think the gabitril does anything. I have a very hard at night in getting and staying asleep. It seems that at this time of year, I start ruminating on all that I did not do in my life and that everyone would be better without me (I really have done some good things-I am a pediatric nurse, raised a child with autism, been married 34 years, and am kind and compassionate.) But I see none of that when I get in a suicidal mood. Are there any other drugs that might help? I tried tegretol and trileptal and they were disasters. What is duloxetine and is it available in the US? Any other suggestions please. I do not want to be in the hospital again. PS I also take klonopin but I am not sure it does anything. I have anxiety and crying spells about once a week
Is hormone replacement an option? Certainly, menopauasal Sx can excerbate one's misery.
