Curious here, what exactly is Kelly's diagnosis?  I was treated for years for clinical depression.  I finally was hospitalized last year this time after a suicide attempt, and a proper diagnosis was made.  Depressive Bi-Polar, or Manic Depressive.  When the symtoms were explained to me, my entire life suddenly made sense, and I wept tears of relief.  I now take Depakote for balance now, and have been able to get off the anti-depressants.  I still cannot hold a full-time job because I have the attention span of a gnat, yet can be scarily obessive at time.

Much luck to you, and I will continue to monitor your posts.
