\"\"<\/a>I’ve added a link to an article at the bottom of this post that asks the question:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0“Is It Really Depression or Could It Be Bipolar Disorder?”<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

There are reasons I really dislike drug companies sometimes.\u00a0 Have you seen the new commercials where a depressed person is asked if they need more meds to get better- and then the answer is add Abilify to your anti depressant!?<\/span><\/p>\n

Say what? Abilify? The one used to treat PSYCHOSIS? <\/span><\/p>\n

I\u00a0believe the advertisements should be 100% required to say that this new drug ‘addition’ is a freaking anti psychotic! With huge side effects!<\/span><\/p>\n

Then the consumer can make a choice. Depression almost killed me in 2010 and then tried hard again in 2011. Changing to new medications saved my life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So I\u00a0am not anti meds- most people aren’t- but I am against touting meds that you don’t clearly explain. I just gained 15+ pounds on lithium- but at least I knew what I was getting in to when I started the medication. <\/span><\/p>\n

As you know,\u00a0 I am also not ANTI drug company. I just can’t stand the way they operate. It’s like using oil to heat a house, but disliking BP Oil . (AH! BP<\/em> oil, et it!) <\/span><\/p>\n
