    • About Me

      I am a married mother of 5 children and 2 stepchildren with 1 grandson and another expected to make an appearance near the end of July. I am a stay at home mom but would love to go back to school. I feel like the oldest 39 year old person I know. I have 4 children still at home and in school. My oldest has designated me as her babysitter and I watch the grandbaby(he is 2)while she works. This is really not good for my depression since I don't get out and garden or spend time in the sun when he is here...which is usually 5 days a week. It is the only thing that keeps me going and I don't know how to tell her...Oh well, could be worse.

      Treatments

      Abilify Not Working
      Had to stop taking..made my brain feel like it was vibrating and made my skin feel like it was crawling on the inside. UGH!!!
      Depakote Too Soon to Tell
      Been taking for almost 2 weeks....not sure yet.
      Klonopin Working / Worked
      The ODT (oral disintegrating tablets) work best at stopping panic attacks and helping sleep.
      Lamictal Not Working
      Got the rash and had to stop....very disappointing as depression is more prevelant than mania.
      Prayer Working / Worked
      Thank you God! Enough said.
      Psychotherapy Working / Worked
      Was working but new insurance won't cover it.
      Seroquel Too Soon to Tell
      Haven't mustered the courage to take it even though I paid for the crap. Everyone says it makes you feel like a zombie. I guess if I get desperate enough I will find out.
