Doesn't this depend on the severity of the condition? I tried anti depressants for years which had no effects and my condition has a lot of fatigue and my experiment with Seroquel just made me more and more drowsy that I simply wouldn't be able to get into work.

I have also linked a lot of my experience to repressed early experiences and have tried numerous alternative therapies. This is OK but if it links in with genetic issues there is still a problem. I have not really done the meds thing despite having a BP and BPD diagnosis. Not sure it is the right thing because I cannot form lasting relationships, have issues with timekeeping at work and binge drink and eat a lot.

What I have not done is learn to pace myself on my terms with me neglecting my needs and trying to suit everyone else's. I am going to genuinely try and do that at my own pace and see what happens. My psych says I need to look to just experience these strong emotions I have. That seems well and good but I am not sure that he knows how severe they can be.
