      teenage years full of massive ups and downs, i finally went to a doctor 6 months ago. got diagnosed as depressed, tried antidepressants, which only made me worse and suicidal. finally saw a psychiatrist, diagnosed as BP2, and feeling much more stable lately.

      Type: Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome

      I ran a lot in high school. It kept me in shape, but destroyed my knees and lower back.

      Treatments

      Ice Pack Working / Worked
      Good old RICE. It worked on momentary pain, not longterm.
      Physical Therapy Working / Worked
      It was slow but eventually got me walking normally again. I still have a hard time running.
      Surgery, Knee Replacement Considering
      My doctors were considering surgery on my right knee, but decided just to wait it out as I was fifteen at the time. Five years later, it's still a possibility, though unlikely.
      Swimming Working / Worked
      Until other problems got in the way, this was easiest on my knees.
