In reply to Manic? PTSD ? Depressed?? or is it physical???, posted by Mandie on November 22, 2003, at 13:51:50
I was wondering if you've had a good physical to rule out a physical cause. I know you are so frustrated. Please, hang on and continue to get some help with this. There's really no such thing as just a mental thing. Our mental effects us physically and visa versa. It does sound like you may need more than one medication for your resistant depression. It doesn't sound like you are cycling like a bipolar disorder. Of course, I am no doc.
PTSD usually involves having flashbacks and/or avoidance to certain reminders of a painful event. Some just have recurrent violent nightmares and body memories. Hypnosis is helpful with this problem. Hang in and keep trying to find a treatment that works for you.
