Dear Mel,
Sorry to hear you are feeling so down. Though you do have reason to!
Sounds like you need a new Dr. As so many of us know from expereince it
can take a while to find one who is sympathetic and who treats us like a
person rather than a symptom.
Like you I so hate those mood swings. How come one day I can feel ok
and other days so unbeleiveably down. Hang in with the Met for some
months (though don't expect a big overnight change) it has been helpful
to many of us and perhaps will be for you too.
Well, tomorrow is another day. Your I am strong face will wake up again
and help you keep going. It is amazing what we actually handle and live
with when we have to.
Take Care. :-)
