Dear Rainee:Please hang in there, Rainee.. Ask your doctor if there is anything more you two can do to help your symptoms.
Yes, your irritability rings a big bell for me. This is a lot like my own depression can be. Angry, pissed off, "mad at the world" is how my doctor described me.
Please don't blame yourself, no matter how frustrated you feel. This is not your fault, how you feel is how you feel. The suggestion you received about mood stabilizers was excellent. They have helped me immensely.
I hope things improve for you soon. With peace, Helen
