    • About Me

      Diagnosed with BP2, I'm trying to go back to College, I write poems (once in a blue moon), short stories (none worth being read I promise), Listening to music, going on as many nature walks as one can, and looking for friends with an understanding of what I have to deal with constantly.

    • Interests

      Many things interest me, however my ability to pursue any interests present and future is really dependent on whether or not I have someone to share that interest with.

    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      I've been dealing with Bipolar for all my life, diagnosed when I was about sixteen.

      Treatments

      Depakote Somewhat Helpful
      It helped with major depression but my brain was too foggy to function normally.
      Lamictal Working / Worked
      This was a god send, until I got Stevens Johnson Syndrome, after that we have struggled to find something else beneficial.
      Lithium Working / Worked
      Works, I'm good... As long as I take two pills twice daily for the rest of my life. But to exist is just that important.
      Tegretol Somewhat Helpful
      It helped cut out the extremes but not the minor depression, or hypomanic moods. The downside was I always felt sick to the stomach, and some vomitting did occur.
      Zyprexa Not Working
      Used before and with the tegratol, didn't have any noticeable affect.
    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      I suffer from Bipolar...

      Treatments

      Lexapro Somewhat Helpful
      Still suffered from bouts of depression
      Paxil Somewhat Helpful
      Caused headaches, and didn't help with anxiety
      Zoloft Somewhat Helpful
      A head full of fog, couldn't think straight to save my life.
    • Open Shyness

      I've always been "socially awkward", Doc says it is due to very low self esteem and a desire to not "bother" others.

      Treatments

      Self-help Working / Worked
      Working as best as I can to "charge" myself up about social situations...
    • Open Anxiety

      Used to get really bad anxiety attacks... Now with the Lithium (used for my BP) I don't seem to get the attacks, sometimes I feel anxious but no attacks.

    • Open Insomnia

      My mind races, and my dreams are hell...

    • Open Families & Friends of Gays & Lesbians

      I have a friend that I've known for about ten years now, at first he didn't tell me he was gay (probably out of fear of my response) but I ended up finding out. He's one of the coolest people around and I don't judge.
