Being useless includes the depression, not really going away, or putting me in a zombie like state that makes me pretty unaware of what was going on around me.

Being useless includes the depression, not really going away, or putting me in a zombie like state that makes me pretty unaware of what was going on around me. I better stay to be in when I was manic for sure, but nowhere to live indefinitely. I highly recommend you get your genetics and start learning about it all. There is such a huge, genetic risk and diversity that underpins mood disorders. It is the only way I found myself out of the mess I was in. I really don’t have an issue with depression as much anymore as I do the mania and insomnia. And the psychosis. That’s where the Klonopin helps me. But lowering glutamate, for some people has been shown to improve stress induced depression. As for depression, I suggest you look at inflammation an immune system as a regulator. And as for nutrients? I suggest checking your iron panel, B6, and zinc. These will help make the catecholamines implicated to be lower in depression.

  > What's the best place to do this? I'm in the EU I do not know. I am in the U.S. >I made some decisions that sent my life in a downward spiral, I don't think those factors have anything to do with it So the difference between psychological depression and biological depression are immense. Not to say that your genetics did not put you at more risk for depression after a stressful event. It still sucks and I'm sorry. But if it was triggers by life choices I would suggest therapy. At times I have rapid cycling Bipolar. There were sometimes I would be depressed and manic within four hour cycles. No life situation triggers it. Just noting the difference.
