Hello.
I m a 31 years old man, diagnosed with BPD (borderline, not bipolar) 9 years ago. I've been on Paxil 20 and Sulpiride 50 the whole time, until this summer, when due to a stressful event, I had to raise the dosage to 60 mg Paxil and 150 mg Sulpiride.
2 weeks after, i was hospitalised in my origin country, Romania (I wanted to change my medication as I considered the dosage too high) and the doctor put me on Zyprexa 5mg, Clonazepam 0.5mg and Sodium valproate 500mg.
I felt good during the hospitalisation (2 weeks) and the next month - sharp, motivated, not depressed, just a little irritable. Then I started to feel occasionally depressed. After 7-10 days, the depression has generalised and I had to see a pdoc here in Spain. This one replaced the Clonazepam with Paxil 20mg. So, today it s my 4th day back on seroxat and I still feel very depressed and anxious.
I can't go to a psychotherapist as I don't speak Spanish well enough and I was wondering if online therapy (I found a romanian therapist which uses voice messenger) would do me any good.
I m currently unemployed and financially dependent on my parents and girlfriend.I appreciate any suggestions.
