Beyond Depression..but still a losing battle?

[awest1217]

You really have to be patient with this process which I know you are already very patient. It is going to a take a while for H to feel the effects of any meds, and some will make it worse. Also the surgery and his sleep still isn't completely back to normal because the brain takes years to recover, and to top it all off, H is going to have to go to some type of therapy to learn how to deal with these low times. He has to get some coping devises because they will still come even with meds.

I agree with you that he needs meds, but he also will need to learn some communication to help him as well. Ways to learn to communicate how he is feeling and understanding what he can do to feel better.

It is still a long road ahead, but things are so much better than last year.

I hope S feels better soon.
