I'm depressed but i'm worried about taking anti-depressants because the last time i tried with Celexa i got manic. That lead to recklessly and foolishly starting a relationship and being rejected and then getting even more depressed than i had been in the first place.

I felt so lousy last night i called the crisis line and had a disappointingly mediocre call. My life is just soooooooooooooo empty. I don't have any family or friends. I don't work. Most days i don't talk to anyone at all. I have a sweet dog, tho.

It's to the point where i am weighing the risk of suicide versus the risk of mania.

Has anyone who is prone to anti-depressant-induced mania found something they can take safely?
