To Kar you mentioned AD's you've been on and also made a reference to having been on TCA's, mood stabilizers, etc. It was quite a list. How long have you been dealing with depression, etc.? How long have you been on the med merry-go-round?

Hi! My "nervous Breakdown" was to not being able to stop
crying when reacting to the stress of my job, and
the belief that I was suffering from liver disease
(I am now a recovering alcholic) no sign of liver disease
I was very upset, and crying hysterically at my
p docs office so he recommended putting me in the hospital
( I suffer from major depression and chronic anxiety) of
which is controlled by the most part by my meds.I guess
"nervous breakdown" could be any number of things.
