Speak to your doctor and he or she can help

Have you discussed this problem, Mood Changes with your Doctor ?

If so has your Doctor suggested any other treatment to help, like a change of medication ? Or what about talking therapy ?

In the past I took an overdose of Opium Type medications and the whole experience was not what you would expect, Suicide attempts are a muggs game
