> > Hi Scott,
Thank you for the medication tips.Here are my symptoms of depression: Despair, crying fits, feelings of horror/dread, worthlessness, suicidal ideation, occasional severe anxiety with derealization, irritability, decreased energy and interest, self-blame, hypersomnia, lethargy, rejection sensitivity, mood reactivity, slowed thinking, depression much worse in AM than PM.
Thank you,
Roslynn
