Does anyone else continue to experience dysthymic/mild depressive moods despite being on medications and going to therapy regularly? Sometimes I feel like I am never going to just be "baseline," whatever "baseline" means anyway. I just feel frustrated because I take my medications consistently. I never miss a dose and try to take them around the same time every day. I know that BPD is not really treated with medication, but is more a therapy-based illness. However, shouldn't my medication be at least lifting my mood to a baseline mood instead of constantly being somewhat depressed/anxious/irritable? I am tired of this because I have been inpatient recently (SUPER helpful) and went through a partial program (which was USELESS) only to continue to have cruddy moods.

On a separate, but related, note... I can't wait until my DBT group starts!
