I went to the GP today to get help with my mood. I have been experiencing a lot of ups and downs - I get really depressed and can be in the depths of despair and not feel like doing anything but then the next day I can feel really positive and feel like everything is going to work out. I have a strong family history of bipolar (parent, grandparent, great grandparent) so the doc referred me to a psychiatrist and doesn't want to put me on anything until I see him. She also wants me to see a psychologist but again wants to wait until I see the psychiatrist before I start that. But I can't get in for 2 months and honestly I don't want to wait that long to get answers and help. I have waited so long to reach out and I just want to feel better sooner rather than later. Any suggestions or advice? Thanks.
