I saw my new doctor today and he suspects that I might be bipolar II... with mostly severe depressed episodes and hardly noticeable hypo-manic ones... (I know I've had one episode that could qualify as an (very mild) hypo-manic one)
That could be the reason as to why my meds don't seem to work as well as expected. Because bipolar depression needs mood stabilizing meds as well as anti-depressants.
I really hope he's wrong because I don't want to start taking lithium or some kind of neurolepticas... But I will if there's nothing else to do.
I suppose they won't make me feel like I'm sacrificing my "highs" since the "highs" aren't any good anyway... and the "lows" are really really destroying my hope and will to live...
