not surprised you are feeling low today luv. always so much to digest after psych appts, and especially when we are confronted with news we dont want to hear. it sucks as there is no 'cure' for depression however, it is learning to manage the illness as best we can. and i know it is easy for me to say, but it is so hard when we are feeling so low. 

and i hear you re: side effects of meds - some of them can be nasty, and scary. and then it is weighing up the benefits v risks of the medication. and thats a good idea to see your psych sooner so he can monitor you. perhaps you can make notes each day on how you are feeling so when you see him you can see how you have progressed with the increased medication. 

i know when ive been to the doctor on a good day, i feel everythings been great but if i go on a bad day i feel everything sucks lol ... so its good to keep a notebook i think.

sorry to hear your son is stressing you out! *big hugs*

and yep, will let you know how the meeting goes tomorrow
