Yes, IR is instant release and XR is extended. Both are generic I believe.

I wouldn't really call this moment coping. I'm pretty severely depressed. But I do have meds that keep me more stable than ever before. I just seem to have a winter depression every year.

Don't give up. It took a while but I have an excellent therapist, an excellent pdoc and meds that help. I won't lie, it took years to get the meds balanced but it can be done.llll/
