About Me
I have been suffering from bipolar for years and I have only recently been diagnosed with bipolar II. I am glad to finally know the truth but it has come at a high price as it has cost me my marriage. I have hope for a better future. I am on Zyprexa, Lithium, Trazodone and Effexor. I am worried that I am being overmedicated and I hope to adress this with my psychiatrist soon. In my free time I enjoy ballet and jazz. I train nightly and I still perform occasionally at the ripe old age of 32. I have a graduate degree in French Literature and I am a teacher.
