    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      One of my diagnosis is Bipolar disorder.

      Treatments

      Lithium Working / Worked
      I think the Lithium is working to control my mood. Side effects of shaking, thirst and a risen body temperature.
      Seroquel Working / Worked
      This medicine keeps the voices at bay mostly. This medicine makes me sleep lots.
    • Close Self-Injury

      I have been hurting myself since i was 12. But did have suicidal thoughts since i was 8.

      Treatments

      Psychotherapy Not Working
      I hate talking about things. People don't understand unless they have been through it themselves.
      Rubber Bands Working / Worked
      this did work but i would do it at work which was not acceptable.
      Squeezing Ice Not Working
      Didnt like this, did not work for me.
      Zoloft Working / Worked
      My medicine is used for impulsive behavour and selfharm.
    • Open Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      Been clinically depressed since i was 14.

      Treatments

      Celexa Not Working
      This medicine definately did not agree with me. I took an overdose while on these, they seemed to make me feel worse not better.
      Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Somewhat Helpful
      Thought this therapy was too hard for me at the time but can see how it could be helpful.
      Effexor Not Working
      This is another type of medication that did not work for me.
      Meditation Not Working
      Did not like this at all. Head would not keep quiet.
      Positive Thinking Somewhat Helpful
      This can help if you are able to do it. Most of the time my head would not be in a suitable state for this to be possible.
      Prozac Not Working
      This medicine took away most of my depression but made my mania much much worse and i was almost constantly manic.
      Psychotherapy Not Working
      Don't like talking to doctors - they dont understand at all.
      Seroquel Working / Worked
      This is working for me. It takes away most of my psychotic symptoms. It makes me very sleepy.
      Support from Friends & Family Working / Worked
      This will always help but never quite be enough.
      Writing Working / Worked
      This used to be a very important outlet for myself but people would find and read what i had written which only made things worse.
      Zoloft Working / Worked
      This seems to be the best anti-depressant for me.
      Remeron Not Working
      Another type that did not work.
