Hey fellow people,

Like the title says, I'm feeling depressed again after 2 years of euthymia. Lithium was doing its job perfectly. To be honest it's still doing its job, this depression is managable compared to prior episodes. I can distract myself from the bad thoughts when talking with people or reading a book which is really nice.

Hopefully I'll be able to hold down my job through this

Gabapentin/pregabaline is honestly awesome. Though I've been addicted to it, it could be worth a try to get it prescribed by my psychiatrist
