Yikes! I've been there before. I was diagnosed bipolar about a year ago, not to mention I suffer from major depression and sever anxiety as well. I've been to rock bottom where I had a strategic plan to end my life but thankfully God put me on my moms heart the night I was going to do it and she talked me out of it. I tried some random drug for seizures (it can also treat bipolar) but it didn't work at all. I went to lexapro (I took it in high school) and it worked wonders for all of my psychological issues. I also found that finding a hobby really took my mind off of things. I knit and crochet to keep myself level believe it or not. It's relaxing and demands most of your thought. Also eating healthy has helped me. I've gone completely organic (it's not cheap but if it helps my mental and physical health it's worth it). Also exercise. I haven't reached the "I can run" stage but walking is really calming for me. When I was pregnant I walked at least a mile every night (weather permitting). Just a few things to think about while you wait to get into a psych.

no mood stabilizer

@jaspersmama, i know. but i wanted specialized treatment for bipolar. combination of right dosing with mood stabilizer and antidepresant. and my current doc knows as much as i do about dosing. i actualy knew more than her. took for anmonth to raise my zoloft to the level i told her was beneficial for me...during that time i was suicidal...and she didnt listen it was a month of hell but in the end zoloft works within a week i feel changes....not completely better just less miserable. lol...but i went manic during those months.

Talk to your primary care physician. They can prescribe you medications as a psych would.

@kymieandersongmailcom549, i love zoloft. but it makes me manic...and there is research somewhere that ssris can cause respiratory stuff in newborns. but im considering zoloft. if things become suicidal. its just im really not in major need of doing nething so im lazing around...when i feel god i do stuff and things are running on bare minimumm....but i dunno if im supose to take meds and push myself for optimum...or not take meds and protect baby. ughhh...:(

my hubby is vipolar but will not get treated and diagnosed and he got to me two days ago. and its fallout from that i think. i already dont feel good but the high emotions from two days ago have messed with me

thanks @mandi0101111 im not suicidal its just im getting tired...i feel guilty. and want to stop trying to eat healthy and trying to bathe and get up from bed. u know i kinda want to give up fighting for feeling better. but i cant stop cus i have kiddos and pets and they need me. :(

ask your obgyn I got on zoloft and am on like 3 other pills but it's really helped me out a lot

I know how depression feels I used to be depressed just know people care and love you. that baby of yours loves you. please use all the strength you may have to get help. I lost my best friend to depression and it haunts me everyday. remember suicide doesn't take away the pain it gives it to someone else. if you ever need to talk message me. I'll be here for you.
