I'm again facing problems of severe painful grieving depression though my other symptoms of rage attacks and continuous rage irritability is in control, at least for the moment.
I'm taking Lithium SR 800, Gabapentin 1800, Ginger root 650 tid.
But I don't know what to do for this grieving depression and mental pain. Conventional anything doesn't work for me, and the doctor mostly recommends antipsychotics which I have a severe negative reaction to.
Ideally, I want something with rapid effects that causes a sustained euphoria with stress-relief maybe increasing endorphins in a sustainable way. Maybe I sound like a druggie but with my condition, something like that is probably what would do me good for my severe crippling mental state. But I don't know what a suitable drug or natural substance, supplement or otherwise would be.
I'm thinking, I hate to take a 'hormone' (because it sounds weird) but if for the time being I take Estradiol, which has effects on anger, and effects on the cannabinoid system and is a FAAH inhibitor too, it might help lift my mood. But I'm a man and don't want effects on chest swelling or anything, I had enough of that kind of stuff on antipsychotics which skyrocketed prolactin levels. Anyway I need thoughts on whether it's a good option and whats an effective but safe dose that won't have 'that' kinds of side effect. Any recommendations for other substances appreciated also. I need something quite rapid, because these mental states are intolerable. :(
