hi,i first got diagnosed with depression and anxiety when i was 15, now ten years later,several diagnosis changes,a lot of medication changes and still nothings getting better.The past 3 years have been hell,my mind wont shut off,i get really depressed for long periods then have times were i feel great and do a lot of writing,usually alittle delusional aswell then theres times were it feels im experiencing all emotions at once,i get really irrated over nothing at times but i feel justified about and the guilt i feel for feeling this way is crippling at times.At the moment i'm not even sure what my diagnosis is, i see a psychiatrist every 3 months for about 40 minutes. i was going to psychotherapy every week but after week 8 i stopped going as i felt the woman was pushing things on me, trying to use my past as the reason for me being the way i am, tho i didn't agree with her and told her this several times, she always said it would make sense if you felt this way due to this happening in your childhood or so on. my mum has done a lot of research and speaks to a nurse she works with about this and is convinced i'm bipolar,when i read about it, it felt like everything clicked into place so i mentioned it to my doctor who just brushed it off with "you shouldn't be trying to self diagnose". i honestly don't know what to do now.

Duloxetine 60mg
Quetiapine 300mg
