I haven't felt "up" to reading checking my e-mails, other than the occasional check to see if 's teacher e-mailed me back (she finally did) and if there are any band updates (I expect one today). Gmail counts replies to an e-mail as part of that e-mail, so in my inbox I have 43 unread mail messages sitting there. I think I'm going through a bit of a depression - well, I'm pretty sure I am - I'm not even checking my MS forum either. I'm still short on attention span and the like.

Actually, I see a psychiatrist - I was diagnosed with bipolar in 2001, but haven't had a manic incident since about 2003.  I THOUGHT that with the addition of zoloft to my cymbalta that we had the depression stabilized other than situational depression, but this doesn't appear to be situational.  And to make matters worse, I had to choose between my medical doctor and my psychiatrist this month (we can't afford copays for both of them this month), so I put the psychiatrist back until November, because I'm having medical issues I need to discuss with my pcp that I THINK are related to my fibro.  My neurologist still wants me to drop the Geodon that I'm on, but at this point, since I'm lately not appearing as stable as I thought I was, I don't know if I can.

Thanks, n.Tina
