      From bmoney Today

      sort of. the carrier is the litter tray. i know....not ideal. i put her fave blankie in and just washed it like crazy when we got her home. they will take her out and clean it at each stop and make sure she is ok. if you don't want to lose a blankie, use shredded papers.

I called and thank goodness my fam prac dr called in a refill for me... she and her nurses are so good to me, considering I have not been to the office in over two years (no insurance), except for one time, after the June accident this summer (and she, that is, my dr is the ONLY party who told me, "do not worry about pmt, we can wait as long as you need).............. glad ur good : )... any plans for today?

    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      I've had 'highs' and 'lows' since late teens, misdiagnosed with depression and anxiety.....too many hospitalisations to reflect upon....only dx BP2 Nov 07.......

      Treatments

      Abilify Too Soon to Tell
      just increased to 20mg
      Depakote Not Working
      1500mg .... worked a little too well, stopped my overly social butterfly antics ... but resulted in a very flat mood ... I felt like 'I' had left the building... zombifictation
      Group Therapy Somewhat Helpful
      Lamictal Working / Worked
      400mg.... great med for the depressive side of BP....
      Lithium Not Working
      1200 mg.....Suicidal depression and horrendous mixed episodes.... plus physical heebie jeebies... couldn't stay on it long enough to see if it would work...
      Risperdal Working / Worked
      2mg worked really well but then my agitation got out of hand and I switched to abilify
      Seroquel Working / Worked
      600mg..... great for agitation...
      Valium Working / Worked
      10mg can be helpful or useless depending on my mood....
