Hi Tina, Sorry you're having such a hard time.During the years that I was mostly not depressed, I still always became depressed premenstrually. It sounds from your post that the good day, bad day is probably not related to your hormones, but I just
wanted to check. I would have bad week, three good weeks, bad week. And at least I could anticipate.Are you on a mood stabilizer? I'm wondering whether mood stabilizers even out anxiety? Also, what about klonopin on a regular basis (not as a prn). Although it is a benzo, it's longer lasting than others and the best defense is to have it in your body at all times. It's not one you'd have to worry about in terms of needing to go higher and higher to get the same effect, in my experience.
Anyway, I'm just taking a few stabs in the dark, but wanted to say I do understand how scarey it must be to not know whether you can or can't depend on yourself on a day to day basis.
Are there panic specialists available to you in Canada?
Take care,
Shelli
