i have depression, suicidal ideation and I don't know what to do.

It was very hard for me to sleep. Sometimes 3 or 4 hours,sometimes up all night. We kept switching Cymbalta from day to night and

Lots of anxiety lately
I have come off most of my bipolar meds except Lithium. Experiencing lots of anxiety lately. I know exercise and meditation are supposed to be good for this. Let's hope it works. I *really* would like to not take meds for this, but I will if I have to. thanks

Is there a Bright Side to Mental Health and Kidney Disease/Failure? Asks the Queen
The other day was National Mental Health day and I thought a lot about my own experiences with bipolar disorder. I read a fact by NAMI that said 75% of mental health issues begin at 24. I was 23-24 when I had my first experience with bipolar disorder. Why am I saying all of this on a website dedicated

Osteoporosis help naturally, no meds!
I was diagnosed this last June and would love input from others as I refused the medication Fosamax but decided to improve my situation naturally through healthy eating, exercises and supplements. Changed from Calcium carbonate to citrate, added K2 for better calcium absorption. Seeing a physical therapist

I'm in therapy twice a week doing DBT and i see my psychiatrist once/week. I just can't take it anymore. I've been very suicidal, but I have

Thyroid Hormone Use in Mood Disorders: Revisiting the Evidence
Discussion about using thyroid hormones in psychology and psychiatry is all too rare. For that reason, even short papers like this have their own value. It is not that there haven't been papers - but there aren't that many and, by the time we see them, they can appear as if they are historical documents

Hi there I have a current GFR of 11. I am 27 years transplanted with my first kidney. I have metabolic acidosis as one of my problems. I was wondering if it causes any of you leg weakness.

Lithium for Parkinson's Book Coming in October
Update 7/15/22: I should have noted that the trial is using Lithium Aspartate, not Lithium Orotate. I e-mailed the doctor asking if Lithium Orotate would be as good and he said it should not make a difference. There were some rat studies linking Lithium Orotate with cancer so they went with Aspartate

Many of you know my story: 20 meds over 30 years of depression, hospitalized, ECT, TMS, ketamine, suicidal, behavioral Therapy twice/week, psychiatrist once/week.

I was on lexapro for about 13 years and went off of it a year ago bc, i fell no joy, motivation, like being paralyzed or inertia. But it gave me a baseline a safety net.
