Suggest Treatment For Depression And Mood Swings

I recently was going to therapy where I was diagnosed with depression and that everything I was saying sounded neurological and didn't want to put me on any medication. After months of talk therapy I felt no better than the day I walked in and started to feel that there had to be more going on in my head than being angry at my dad, which is what I was told was causing everything. I have bad mood swings and become irritated or angry very easily, I also don't sleep well at night. There are 3 people in my family that are bipolar is it possible that I am too?

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. You are doing well after those therapy interventions. That is definitely a positive sign. Feeling irritated, angry, worthless are all common symptoms of neurosis. You should understand, creative activity alone can bring you out of your condition. That is a slow process. Change happens slowly and when it becomes a habit, the past habit of neurosis will become extinct. Have a positive attitude and work with your therapist.

If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this URL. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
