It's always a good idea to check hormones, thyroid. My blood pressure was up some. While reading side effects of the drugs I'm on, 2 state that high blood pressure is a side effect.
It's a good idea to get all the help you can. If your ins covers or you can afford more visits. One year I was determined to stay out of hospital.
I saw a Therapist every day, my pdoc once per week and my NAMI DBSA support group once per week too.
It's not your fault. I've seen PET scans of people with depression vs people without. Different parts of the brain are lit up in each comparison.
If you can get a good med cocktail that keeps you stable and let's you sleep, that's great!
