finally realizing that I need to go back on antidepressants/mood stabalizers....I have depression with a mood disorder. Before I turned 17 I was hospitilized with severe depression that led into an eating disorder/self injuring type thing. I've been really depressed since late last year and I've been trying to avoid my problems, sedate them with food pretend that everythings okay when it's not. I'm not one that really likes to talk about what's bothering me. I can't concentrate on my school work and my grades are suffering. I don't feel like I have anything to live for..not to mention my moods are severe. I go from one extreme to the other. It's nothing new...I just hate admitting that I have a problem..I just want to be "normal".
