Hi there everyone,
Perhaps somebody has a suggestion on how to handle this:
Sense of mounting desperation and impending doom.
Suicidal thoughts, (even planning the method, location.) I've had 3 major depressive episodes, all were preceeded by a couple of weeks of euphoria, then crash, (for many months). No substance abuse, just boughts of various meds, all pooped out after 3-8 months. these were,
Venlafaxine, Amisulpride, Sulpride, Tianeptine,
Moclobemide, Bupropion, Reboxetine, Fluoxetine various benzos and sleep meds. Some like the SSRI's caused uncharacterist behaviors . Could this be bipolar? if yes is there any solutions other than heavy duty meds like Lithium, Valproate
( which I've never tried, too scared)Any suggestions most welcome.
Thanks.
MM.
