(((((((Tina)))))))) you are making perfect sense to me. I understand the mixed moods all too well. I hope that you even out today and don't crash back down. I don't blame you for wanting to try your own cocktail. Sometimes I think about doing that myself. But I don't think my pdoc would go for that either. She'd drop me like a hot spud. Now, my old pdoc would probably have said go for it, but that was then and this is now I guess.
And, yes I think a/f has A LOT to do with our cycles. And that really sucks. But at least we get to look forward to menopause.......gee what a comforting thought huh?
Hang in there and keep us posted.
Peace, Love & Light

I'm sure the hormones have 90% to do with how you are feeling right now....with me, when I have pms/af, meds do nothing for me at all.
God could not be everywhere, so
Hey Tina...hugs, and love!
I just have a hard time with how your pdoc treats you. Maybe that's normal, and mine is just different. But I call all the time, and she HELPS me...she never ever ever makes me wait. I mean, yeah, I'm treatment resistant too...but there are still options! Try meds you've been on before...they may work this time. Definitely change your a/d.
I wish you didn't have to suffer like this. I love you and I'm here for you, for what that's worth.

Tina-
I know what you mean about wanting to fight with someone, except for me it's not for fun. I either go from depression and irritability or to mania and rage. The only thing lithium has done for me is taking away any happiness. Coloring circles sounds like an interesting idea. I always have a hard time believing that things like that will actually help the rage. It's just so deep in there. Have you tried it yet? Did it work? My aunt who is a social worker told me to "take deep breaths" and I was so angry and screaming, so I was like "YOU MEAN LIKE THIS!?!!?" and took such a deep breath I ended up spitting all over her. She didn't make many suggestions after that ;)
I totally know what you mean about wanting to tell the pdoc what meds you want. But then they are the doctors after all... although I'm starting not to care. I think I'm going to walk in on Wed and say "I want tegretol and wellbutrin. NOW!!" We'll see how that goes over :)
Let me know if you figure out anything to do when you feel like fighting.
Hang in there,
Meg
