At my last pdoc appointment, he was thinking about other meds that might be worth trying if I can't shake this depression. I've been thinking a lot about whether or not it'd be worth trying other meds. I have had unbearable side effects to so many meds that I don't know if it's worth the risk. And, if it takes a bit to find a new med combo, what would that do to my symptoms?

I think the first thing I would want to do is once again up my seroquel dose. Upping it from 12.5 mg to 25 mg helped lessen the SI so a higher dose might lessen my depression even more. I might even message my pdoc and ask him if I can try this before my next appointment so then we can discuss the results.

Part of this is situational though so it's hard to know where the med help where end/how much meds can overcome a situationally fueled depressive episode.
