This is going to sound completely bizarre but it is profoundly true. If you want to truly experience improvements in your mood issues, consider seeing an L.L.M.D. at least as often, or more often, than you see the psychiatrist or the regular doctor.
LLMD = Lyme Literate Medical Doctor. Each state has 6 to 20 of these experts. Find one. Add him/her to your team. I am not exaggerating when I claim the LLMD is likely to take you much further into success territory, and much faster, than any other type of doctor out there. Let them decide if you have Lyme or not. It doesn't. matter if you do or don't - their input, suggestions, medicines and herbs, actually get psych patients a lot better.
That's because they focus on the areas that actually cause psychiatric symptoms - systemic inflammation, microbial insults, and environmental insults. They also know some tricks on dosing psychiatric meds that I never saw any psychiatrist do.
I was a 20 year basket case of treatment resistant major depression, failed so many meds, failed ECT, suffered so long and wasted so much money. When I got hooked up with an LLMD, all that changed. Three years later I was in remission with no meds.
