I'm convinced I don't need an adjustment in my psycho drugs, that I just have a pattern of getting moody and sad at this time of year every year. No drug can fix it. It's "all in my head"! I take my Seraquel and Topamax religiously as directed but I still get depressed on my birthday in October every year and it lasts until March (throught the tough holiday season which is touch for a whole lot of people). There's got to be another answer besides more drugs! Any ideas??

I'm a 7th grader in Algebra 1 and it's hard for me. Most of my friends are in Pre-Algebra. Anyways, we went over set-builder notation in class yesterday. Although the 1 1/2 hour lesson of inequalities was boring, I really tried to listen. What is set-builder notation, and how do you use it?
