> Anyway, i wanted to bring up an issue and maybe this is reserved for a "social" issue and if it is will you please follow it with me? that's what i hate about being re-directed, i"m never sure if people will follow it or not.
> anyway - it's this. I know it's totally ridiculous and typical and he's probably gay - nothing wrong with this at all and which is great for gay men, but not so good for me, but I don't know what to do with this. I have a crush on my psychiatrist. Yes, I do. I feel ridiculous. I can't help it. he's a bit older, very educated, funny (with sense of humor), and intelligent and able to converse on an emotional level and why not????? Really?!
> Anyway I've thought about not posting this. I'm still waiting for the depakote in the mail. I honestly am thinking that I need to give it a try with no meds. I am starting to feel normal and I can focus and I feel happy to be alive. And I don't want to call this hypomanic. I want to keep this feeling. Can't I just be exuberant and joyful to be alive without being labeled? really. I need to know what is going on with me without meds. I'm not sure if I'll take the depakote when it comes in the mail.

Katia, you might want to take a look at Psychological Babble as well. Transference is a popular topic there.

Katia,
I understand wanting to not take meds. I would love to not take meds. But please work with your psychiatrist to decide what to cut down and how fast to do it. You need to keep taking them for a while (I don't know how long) before you stop, or you'll crash again. I would hate to see that.

Hi,
Sorry I didn't reply. I thought it'd notify me on my email. Thanks for the responses. Yes, the transference. I'm actually talking about with my therapist - who is NOT my pdoc. I know it doesn't have anything to do with him - I don't know him. It's just interesting how it all happens and plays out. I was also feeling a little "high" and I think that was part of it. My mood is wavering now tho'. I'm trying to decide whether to start my depakote or not. I just don't see how it will help with my depression. I understand it will help with the ups, but I'm more low than anything else. anyway, I'm probably confusing boards again and I'll be redirected back to the other one!
just wanted to say thanks for the response.
Katia
