I understand what you're saying. My Pdoc is wonderful but there are times like he is somewhere else and doesn't really listen to me. And there are times I try to tell him something but I can't put it into words. So I started to keep a note book just for my appointments with him. I write down everything that I need to tell him and give it to him when I see him. This way what I wanted to say is there and he has to answer or address the question or statements. It works really well. I get the notebook back. And then have it for my next appointment. I have a hard time putting my feelings into words.

I wanted you to know that I understand how you feel. I'm so depressed that there are days I can hardley get out of bed... And days I can't even fuction or clean house. I struggle everyday with depression. (However last week I felt really numb - not depressed, just didn't feel anything at all - except for panic when I thought I had to leave the house). I have agoraphobia (Fear to leave my home), on top of being BP2, Anxious/Panic Attacks, can't sleep (unless I have my sleep meds).

I wish you the very best and sorry about my ramblings...
