I have a very limited budget, I'm struggling to find work and stay positive and motivated about job hunting, my future, and my life in general. I have gotten some interviews but no results yet.
I don't have the financial resources right now to see a pdoc or get therapy, but those are first on my list, the only medication I'm on is Depakote, but it doesn't do anything for the extreme lows. At night I deal with a lot of intrusive thoughts, ruminating about the past, and worrying about the future.

I hated Depakote. I felt like instead of making my negative thoughts better, it made my head race and the si more forceful. That was just my experience with it, but I will never take it again. Between my mood state and it, I was pushed right to the limit.
There are other Mood stablilizers. Just my thoughts.
