Mike-I am new to this board (I post on Psyho-Babble) I hear you at times "depression robs us of our ability to know who we really are. *sigh* I feel inconsistent too, and with the help of starting back on Lamictal over a week ago-I'm hoping it gets better.
Hang in there:-)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> Dinah, you're making perfect sense. I think that's one of the worst things about depression is that it robs us of our ability to know who we really are. At least, that's how it is with me, it's all dependent on how I'm feeling that day so I feel so inconsistent. I hope you're right in that people don't see us the same way we see ourselves, as up and down and inconsistent. I also think that the depression makes us harder on ourselves which just makes things all the more difficult.
sigh.
