My feeling is yes that I am more at risk for another one. I feel more vulnerable to it. I feel like an egg that broke. I am not the same. I can't totally explain it, but I am not the same. I am more vulnerable to being brittle depressing and anxiety.
In regards to tx, I have had to keep on with finding a good psychiatrist. My psychiatrist had gotten overwhelmed and dropped her private practice without notice. It was very difficult. Word of mouth is how I found my new doc. This was after a terrible experience with a community doc. I am on medications now - cymbalta, lexapro, klonopin (as needed), topamax, and rozerom (sp?)
Yes, I know what you mean. You don't have to be suicidal to be disabled. It's like you are shutting down - can't read, concentrate, watch tv or even hold a conversation. I live very isolated right now, but it's sort of protective too. I look okay, but I am not 100%. People can't get passed if you make sense and look human - you must be functional. It's not the case. I do the best I can. I don't ask much of myself anymore.
