I wasn't trying to be hurtful or negative. I was trying to be persuasive. I realize that the way it was worded was harsh, but I didn't notice this until now.

While I don't know how you feel exactly, I am here on the forum for the same reason as you. I was depressed severely for a year and then I started to think about ending it all. I got to the ER, got some treatment to stabilize me.

The depression was still there but not as bad. I quit my Psychiatrist and found another one. I asked for Lithium (since I tried everything else). It worked in 5 days or so - dramatically. I know it won't work for everyone, but I see you suffer here (alot) and I just want to see you post a message that you feel fantastic for the first time in a long time. I thought that if you asked for Lithium for a month, there's a chance you'll feel better too.

Again, sorry for being so harsh in my earlier post. I just want you to be the person you were before you felt this way.
