    • About Me

      31 yo. married to a beautiful woman named Jill. We have a 1/5 yo Italian Greyhound named Rocco. He is our child by all sense of the word. I work as a financial analyst and Excel guru for a casino. My bipolar story is quite fun, exciting, scary, depressing, uplifting and inspiring...at least to me it is. Someday I may share it with the world and write the next great American novel.

      From clarncejonesnks March 18, 2008

      I would like to tell you a little bit about me, ok. I worked for the city of San Diego, Calif. for 20 years in parks & recreation...then I wanted to move to were I was born, In Kansas. I got a job working for the city of Leawood, Ks. for about 2 years in parks & recreation. Then my bipolar condition became so bad I had to quit. I've been on diabilty since then...for nearly 10 years. Now I'm looking for part time employment in a less stresed job. I just hope I can do it. Right now I'm manic and have been so for 12 days now. I've been channeling myself into making new friends on DS. I've made 124 new friends in the last 12 days...WHEW!!! Being manic right now, it seems that I can't stop making new friends. I like doing this to fight of my lonliness and depression. I'll tell you a bit more about me later, ok. I would like to be your new friend. Clarence.

    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      Started with a lot of introspective analysis of myself. Led to a "breakthrough". Then less sleep. Then no sleep. then thinking I was God. Then the hospital.

      Treatments

      Zyprexa Working / Worked
      That stuff was like getting punched in the face with a 2x4. It's an anit-psychotic and worked when I was in the hospital. The brand name is Zyprexa.
    • Close ADHD / ADD

      I was diagnosed with BP 5 years ago. Up until 2 years ago I had not been diagnosed ADD/ADHD..but man does that make sense. Since then, and the meds, life is pretty good.

      Treatments

      Adderall Working / Worked
      I've been bumped up to 30mg. I love this stuff. My dose has been increased thrice but it is still effective. I've lost 20 pounds since going on it...needed to though.
    • Open Infidelity

      About 18 months ago I joined an online meeting website when I recognized a co-worker on the site. That turned into messaging back and forth with various women. I stopped it, but I never deleted the email account. My wife found the email account and threw me out. I never met or touched anyone, however I know that does not excuse it at all.
