9. best of luck

psych meds are an inexact science at best.

I went through four different SSRIs/SNRIs before I finally got what I think is the correct diagnosis. They kept on losing their effectiveness on me, even when I was on the highest doses.

Finally, I read an article about bipolar disorder II, and noticed the strong correlation between the symptoms and what I was feeling. Last December, I rearranged my meds yet again (third time in two years, after I was hospitalized for a major depressive episode) and finally things seem to be working.

Good luck with the doc tomorrow. :thumbsup:
