Discuss your current symptoms with your psychiatrist; it is possible they will make changes in the medications or doses which will improve your symptoms. I also suggest you go for regular counseling to help you cope with daily stressors. Confide in a supportive friend or family member who will help you get through this. Set goals for yourself and work towards them. If you are feeling suicidal please consult a psychiatrist immediately.
