Morgan,
I do get some relief from percocet, just don't want to take too many, but for times like today (had a rough time after seeing my extremely judgmental father in law, always end up feeling so much worse about myself after his comments) when I am feeling hopeless, I feel it's necessary (for both the phsyical and mental). I talked to my doc and he was adamant about not giving me an MAOI emsam patch, but instead insisted on lamictal which I had so many reservations about. That's all he offered, and then left for vacation. So I am very on my own, and was looking online for some other suggestions and another site talked about something I haven't tried called kratom, but I can't quite figure out what it is, but everyone was saying it has rapid antidepressant effects. I am also trying extra EPA & DHA, coq10, and threw in some extra zinc today. But I need something more because I feel like a small push from another hurtful person like my father in law could push me over the edge, beyond the edge of reason (I never hurt anyone else, just myself). I'm so desperate, so alone, and have no clue what to do. I did read that lithium and TCAs have a rapid antidepressant effect, and still have a little nortriptylene, and thought about what you suggested, lithium orotate. Maybe that or kratom, if I can find out more about that. Anything to keep me from going over that edge. Just feels like it's getting a little worse every day, and I'm so scared.
