Thanks bipolarwildr,
It is so good to hear about a positive result like yours. I'm very happy for you that your depression has vanished. That is what we all want and hope for. It's great to read that it can happen! You've encouraged me very much.
I'm seeing the Pdoc tomorrow. I think he'll be changing me from Citalapram to something else. I get well for a while then start sliding backwards again. He can't increase the Citalapram as I'm already over the recommended dose. That leaves us no room to adjust the dose upwards if things go bad. He doesn't want to increase the Lithium.
I am feeling quite apprehensive about the prospect of jiggling meds again. I've had a bad experience with Effexor, yet it works fantastically for my friend. It's a bit of a lucky dip really. I just want to feel better.
Thanks again,
Note: If my chart looks funny, its because I use the blue squares to mark each time I have a big daytime sleep. Had a hysterectomy so don't need the blue squares.
Regards,
Kelpie
