this has been bothering my attitude ;-;

[sup]My parents decided to switch my anti-depressants last
Thursday, and I've been having the worst mood swings since then.
Like, my old anti-depressants did exactly what they needed to
do. I could smile again, and I've been clean from cutting since
March. That's good, or at least I consider it good. But they
changed my medicine, and I'm not the same anymore. Anytime
someone tried to talk to me when my mood was off today, and I
screamed at them, then started to feel depressed, then a second
later I was all upset again ;-;
Any suggestions?[/sup]

[sub]Tell your parents that you need the old ones again and tell
them what it's doing to you. I battled depression for over a
year because I'd always thought I was so ugly and that I needed
to lose weight, and pretty much hated everything about myself.
One reason was because I didn't have a boyfriend, and I figured
out why: every boy that asked me, I turned down so every other
boy is afraid to ask me. What I did was think about why I feel
this way about myself. I resolved my problem over the summer.
Now that's school's started up again I'm a lot happier and I
feel better about myself--not exactly like "I'm so gorgeous,"
but more like, "I'm not ugly, or fat." If self-esteem is what
you're dealing with, I suggest look in the mirror and find
things that you like about yourself. Say things like, "I don't
like my nose, but I love how pretty my eyes are." Find the good
in yourself. That's what I did, and it worked.
If it's bullying, which happens to everyone, you could ignore
them. But fighting back will make it worse. Over so many years
what I've learned is that no matter what, someone's not going to
like you. No matter how awesome your clothes are or how pretty
you are, or how nice you are, someone's not going to like you.
And that bullies want you to feel bad. So don't give them what
they want. I shrug and say, "So? Why does your opinion matter to
me?" But whatever you do, don't fight back. They'll just keep on
coming at you, and every time they just get more vicious.
No matter what it is that causes your depression, you should go
back to the old medication. c:[/sub]
