I find the moods to be causing most of my issues. I’m not allowed antidepressants which is possibly part of the reason. one of the pdocs suggested lithium once is this safe ? Id rather try something like tegretol again.

Your posts do sound like SZA. Do you feel you have symptoms of both mania and depression?
If so maybe a mood stabilizer. Hope you can figure it out with your Pdoc.

I think more depression possibly hypomania but I don’t recognize those symptoms in me.

@anon25873142 Lithium can do wonders for Manic depression in some people. I don’t like it though because it can lead to hypothyroidism. It did with me. And it does with a lot of people.

@anon25873142 I highly recommend Tegretol.
I took Lithium and one other mood stabilizer to zero effect for many years. I was very suicidal and depressed when my pdoc started me on Tegretol. Then, one day, I was standing in my kitchen, looking out the window, when I felt my mood go up just like an elevator from my groin to the top of my head. And there it has stayed ever since. And that was back in 2005. I’m not even on Tegretol or any mood stabilizer anymore and haven’t been for years.
