Hi,
> I'm not taking BC. Can you recommend anything else that has worked for you or others to relief this a bit? Its really frustrating.

Nothing much else really helps me when I'm mildly depressed like that. I work hard to have good things in my life and not bad things. I do get happy when I'm dysthymic, but it doesn't seem *super happy* or anything. Kind of like everything (except sadness) is blunted. But during these times I have enough energy to cope and to function. I guess I've never really tried to get better while dysthymic. I mean, I wasn't seeing a therapist or pdoc or anything. Just struggling along myself.
I'm not giving any helpful information, am I? :-) I hope you start feeling better soon, though,
Susan
