      I've not had ECT, but I've been to that "non-suicidal but I wish I could shut down" place millions of times. Curl up with something you love, be that a person or a tub of Ben and Jerry's Phish Food Ice Cream and an Asian Horror film and lose yourself for a bit. Take a drive to no place particular, all by yourself. Park and cry if you need to, but it'll pass. Light & Love ~Sarah

      I am now experiencing more depression than mania. It has not always been that way, though. I have experienced my fair share of mania in the past.

      Treatments

      Geodon Working / Worked
      Don't seem to have as much mania with geodon. I am taking 240 mg a day and it tends to make me sleepy.
      Group Therapy Working / Worked
      I guess it works. I go every Monday night and have been going to a hospital therapy group for several months. I like to talk about how I am feeling & it seems to help a little.
      Lamictal Working / Worked
      I am taking 250 mg a day at the moment. That could change. Not working too well at this point.
      Electroconvulsive therapy Working / Worked
      This seems to help my depression. My memory is off though.
