I saw my pdoc today. I told him all about my deep depression. He said he wanted to lower the Latuda to 80 mg because I'm tired. I just kind of looked at him blankly and couldn't believe he didn't want to do anything except lower the dose. He said, "Are you worried the depression will get worse?" I told him that yes, I think the meds aren't working anymore. So he recommended lithium and printed out some lab tests I have to go get before and after starting it. I didn't really understand his directions because I'm slow to process lately. I did ask questions and I just hope I can do everything right. I'm feeling frustrated about my treatment lately and I want to cry. I don't know what I really expect though. I guess I feel like no one can help me. I'm thinking about going to a psychologist because I think there are other things going on besides bipolar. I increasingly can't function and my job is on the line.
