Hey stjames (and all)
thanks for the note. I only tried Wellbutrin, Lexapro and celexa as ADs. Lithobid was added as I started to have suicidal thoughts and called my doctor. (yes, you are right, i want to live) She doesnt think i am BP, but I know I have my highs when I buzz like a bee and and my lows when I become a bottomdweller in the ocean. I think it was mainly added and laeter increased to stop me from harming myself.
My head is a constant cloud. I cant get any work done. I hate this and the idea of failing this semester and having to face my family make me want to die. (FYI, they think meds and therapy made me only more dysfunctional)
I started to take ADs as I stopped attending classes and reading last spring. I was crying for hours for no reason everyday, and switched between insomnia to oversleeping everday. Celexa at that period helped to stabilise greatly, but I ran out of medication while abroad and literally turned cold turkey. I went medless for two months and started Lexapro ,in hopes that it'd cause less side effects. It wiped away my libido and messed my sleep and eating patterns more than imaginable. So finally it is lowered. I am not happy with it. I am not happy at all. Actually last night I sopped taking my medication. I dont want to think, but I have tofor the next two weeks.
Best,
Dps: i already have 3 incompletes under my belt that will turn to Fs this semester. plus, my academic department is only as supportive as my family.
