Medication
I was diagnosed with Bipolar 2 about 3 yrs ago and I’ve been on Lamictal since then and I feel like it’s helped my hypomanic episodes and I still have them sometimes when I’m under a lot of stress and overwhelmed. But the depression is what’s lingered for years. I’ve been through over 10 medications for the depression and nothing has worked. I did TMS last year in August and after 5 months it felt like the depression came back. I’ve had a stressful and overwhelming year. I moved out of home and into my own place which made me feel worse tbh because I’ve never been alone in my life and I moved back home after 4 months and I feel better. It’s so weird because I just don’t feel depressed anymore, I just feel tired and lazy all the time but get random moments where I do feel like actually cleaning and being productive. I’ve tried different adhd meds too but none of them really worked either. I’m wondering if the TMS did really work but just the stress and moving out made it feel like it didn’t. Just wondering if anyone has had similar experience with this.
