> Ooops!!! Sorry, my bad. I knew you were female. My brain malfunctioned when I typed that.it's okay :) i actually chose the name ghost when i first picked a net nickname because of it's gender ambiguity ;)
I'm seeing a different pdoc now. i ended up being hospitalized a month ago (i posted about it), and i asked to see the oncall pdoc instead of that jerk, and this new guy agreed to see me outside once i was released, too. he's a really nice guy. i'm sorry i'm moving and will have to find a new pdoc.
not to turn this into a med-thread (heh), but have you/did you try lamictal? i just started that and a few of my BP friends swear by it. my pdoc said it was a good choice for people who tend to be more depressed than manic, which it sounds like we both are. i really like it so far.
> Oh yes, 2 crazies being friends. It probably works better than most other friendships. lol!!!
i think so ;)
wow. it sounds like you've been through a LOT for you depression. i really hope you can find something that works for you soon... it's so miserable to be on the downswing of a depressive phase. incidentally i love pharmacists. sometimes they know more about drugs than the doctors. they're so well-trained.
here's to a better week next week, ok? :)
