It's so hard to tell and so frustrating isn't it? A year ago in January I got depressed. By the beginning of April I was fine on my elevated dose of AD and I was back to my normal AD dose by June. This year I had a much worse depression starting almost to the day and at the end of April I'm still fighting to get better although I am improving slowly but surely. Usually I have hypomania in between late June and late August; that's not happened for several years.

It would be nice if there were some kind of test strip to use daily to tell us what is going on or something like a continuous glucose monitor only for moods.

I'm glad you are feeling relatively well.
