I tend to see my situation and solutions as 2 alternatives:
1) I am (still) stressing myself too much in terms of hours spend on all sorts of things, including work and even things in my spare time.
I go to bed too late, forget to take some breaks during my work days, my weeks are too busy.
I need to work less, take care of bedtimes and make exercise on a more regular basis.
Stress => depressed periods directly.I am even suspecting that the meds are not really helping me as I have these none-controllable mood swings that can happen at all times - also when on vacations, in weekends etc.
or
2) I am bipolar II in some kind of way, not the typical one, and I need to add some mood stabilizer, could be lithium or lacmital.
I have done enough in terms of reducing my work load and I sleep enough already as it is (7-8 hours). It is a chemical problem in my brain and I need to change my meds.
