please help me! (Anti-depressants & Hair Loss)

I'm also a 37 year old woman whose lost at the very least 25% and counting of my hair. Because my hair was really thick (didn't know this until it changed)people have not believed me. I've experienced the doctor's who barely look at you and determine you're wrong or it's normal. I'll try not to go on and on here with the details because I don't need to convince you it's true.
I've done hours and hours of research on my own too. Lithium, so far is one of the worst statistically (12-19%).
I found this chart on the internet, TABLE 2,(close to the bottom of the page)shows some differences between Normal hair loss and drug-induced hair loss. Just above that are some questions that the doctor should be asking in the "Exam". It feels like you have to fight for an actual "exam" doesn't it? I tried to just upload the chart, but I couldn't get that to work.
