    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      I was diagnosed with bipolar shortly after my 18th birthday. I am 24 now and it has been a long, hard road. Having bipolar has totally changed my life. I have ruined alot of friendships, alot of relationships and have been addicted to everything from drugs to sex. I still am addicted to several things. I am just looking for help. I just want things to change.

      Treatments

      Cymbalta Working / Worked
      This, along with Seroquel was a combination that really worked for me. It was the last combination of drugs I was on before I lost insurance coverage.
      Zoloft Working / Worked
      I had been on Zoloft for several years and it worked great for me but towards the end it did stop working.
      Paxil Not Working
      Paxil was horrible for me. Never again. That's all I have to say, lol.
      Celexa Too Soon to Tell
      Wasn't working at the 20mg dosage so they upped it to 40mg and it seems to be working pretty well.
      Prolixin Not Working
      Didn't help at all with my racing thoughts. The side-effects were out of this world!!
      Abilify Too Soon to Tell
      Just started, we shall see.
    • Close Sex / Pornography Addiction

      I'm addicted to talking about sex, having sex, anything have to do with sex....

    • Open Rape

      4 years ago I was held hostage by a guy I met from a friend. For 3 days he repeatedly raped, sodomized, and beat me. 4 years later I am still dealing with the effects of what happened.

      Treatments

      Rape Counseling Working / Worked
      I saw a rape counselor a little over a year after the incident. I only saw her for a short while but she was wonderful.
    • Open Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

      I never really noticed the OCD tendencies until I was pregnant with my second child. I noticed that I was washing my hands often and that I was counting numbers in my head all day long and also that I would have to check all the doors and windows over and over to make sure they were locked. Just when I think I'm getting better, I realize I'm not. It sucks.

      Treatments

      Remeron Working / Worked
      It was ok.
      Zoloft Working / Worked
      I was on this for several years and it worked well.
    • Open Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

      4 years ago I was held hostage by a guy I met through a friend. My first time meeting him he held me hostage for 3 days while he raped, sodomized, and beat me. Afterwards I was numb but I continued my life. I did press charges by the way. Almost a year later I started having flashbacks and long story short I was told I had PTSD.

      Treatments

      Rape Counseling Working / Worked
      Worked while I went.
      Remeron Working / Worked
      worked.
      Seroquel Working / Worked
