@david63 Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect!

No one said it would be easy, and it sure seems that it can be quite a feat to get through day-to-day, right? We will find that going slowly, and watching ourself, will help lead us to a better day-to-day life. Somedays are really difficult, definitely. If we look back to how we were, and where we are now, it might be hard to always see the ways we are feeling better, but indeed, they are there.

Keep plugging along, honor yourself, be gentle on yourself. When will you have the review of meds by your PCP completed? what do you think they might change?

I, too, have been through years of what I call “psychodrama” being therapized upon. First diagnosis was anxiety, the depression. Then they added bipolar disorder which I questioned. I was on medications for 33yrs with them continuing to add more. Then I decided to get off everything with the Drs. Help against their advice of course. I was tested for ADHD. It fit. I started taking meds for adhd only! Success! I would suggest trying different meds if ne doesn’t help! After 39 yrs of misdiagnosis I am finally free! You brought up a good point with the sensitivity issues because I have them also. Ty
