Hi Scott. No, no female hormonal stuff..though I am peri-menopausal, all my hormones are withing normal limits.
You know, I have tried both Lithium and Lamictal before, and they had no effect on me. But that was before ect. ect caused great changes in me. prior to it I was definitely straight-up unipolar depressed. But after ect, which made me feel worse, not better, my illness turned into a very different beast. my meds no longer worked for me, and my depression and anxiety got much, much worse. and i realize, now that I think about it, that my moods started to go all over the place, whereas prior to ect they had been pretty steady. So maybe lithium and lamictal would have an effect now. I'll see what my pdoc thinks. I still have some of each of them. I hope you are continuing to feel better and continue to enjoy your vacation
