I am seeing a Psychiatrist (well, a PMHNP) now, who after 3 visits said we need to investigate the possibility of Bipolar at my next appt. This after 3 yrs with a Psychiatrist who kept prescribing anti-depressants, then prescribing something to chase a side effect, then another something or other to chase a side effect of THAT.

I'm much happier with this new person, even if she's not technically a Psychiatrist. She actually listens instead of the 10 minute, how are your meds, here's something else to treat a side effect, see you later.

If there is anything out there that can quiet my mind, i'll be eternally grateful. Currently, I just started taking Cymbalta, but have been on Klonopin and Xanax for my anxiety & panic disorders...None of them quiet the mind...Helps a little sometimes, but only when I take more than prescribed.

Thanks for replying January!
