Hello from England

That’s right I’m in the UK, visiting my family.

I’m on antidepressants now though, sertraline.

I have to email my psychiatrist every week to check in as taking them runs the risk of triggering hypomania. What fun!

So long as it doesn’t start a psychotic episode.

He recommended I go on them because my depressive symptoms hadn’t gone away in the few months between our appointments.

I’ve finally got an appointment with a psychologist for June. So good to have a complete care team at last.

My blood lithium is 0.83, just above the magic level.

I definitely thought I felt the difference it made, but that doesn’t agree with my being depressed. Does it?

I would write more, but I’m doing this on my phone. I’ll promise again to write soon.
