    Default Re: Mood Disorders

    I have depression. I take 20 mg a day of Lexapro to keep my mood in check. If I don't, I get really pissed at little things easly, and get upset or angry extremely easy. It is also far harder to get out of the "funk" once I'm in it.
    Meds help, a lot. But it has to be the right sort, otherwise it can really mess you up, and you have to try and improve your happiness in addition to just taking the meds.

    One thing I really get pissed at is Scientolgists, or fools who don't believe in depression or make fun of people who have it. My mom, and many of her ancestors had depression. They of course were never diagnosed, and some of them ended up dying from alcholism. My mom is on depressants as well.
