I know there are a lot of people that do not believe that Angels walk among us, but I for one am not one of those people. God and his Angels …

About Me
I am a mother to a precious 8 year old miracle, my son. I was a Paralegal for 20+ years and a single mom when my son was born up until 2005 when I got married. My problems with Bipolar, Panic/Anxiety Disorder, Agoraphobia, and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder finally surfaced about 4 years ago and have only gotten worse. I am on a lot of medication and we have recently found out that my son is Bipolar. I am VERY passionate about seeing that he doesn't live in the hell that I live in daily.

Interests
I love anything to do with outdoors when I am able. Unfortunately due to the meds and Agoraphobia, I have gained a lot of weight & had 7 surgeries in 3 years, but when able, we ride bikes as a family, we camp, we LOVE to travel to Tennessee, the Beach, both of which we go to for my son's birthday each year. He would rather do that than spend time with friends.

Close Bipolar Disorder
I have a long history of mental illness in my family. I was recently diagnosed as Bipolar w/ Panic/Anxiety Attacks & Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. My father was Bipolar w/ OCD & I was visiting him in 1990 when he put a gun to his head & pulled the trigger. My mother,sister, both grandmothers,two Aunts & now my precious 8 year old son has this dreaded disease. It has basically destroyed my new marriage of almost 4 yrs. I have rec'd disability though.
Treatments
- Haldol Not Working
- Had to come off of. After a month or so, it caused temp blindness, facial paralysis and arm/leg paralysis. Due to its effect, according to my eye doctor, my vision has now progressed 20 years from what it should be and I am in bifocals. This medication is not for everyone and unfortunately, I was one that it caused severe reactions in.
- Lamictal Working / Worked
- Has worked well. I take 300 mg every night.
- Lithium Working / Worked
- Has worked really well. Slowly increased dosage to 600 mg in AM and 600 mg in PM. I have a little bit of shaking with this increased dosage, but that is all.
- Seroquel Not Working
- Did not do anything for me.
- Topamax Working / Worked
- Is working for me. I take 100 mg at bedtime.
- Wellbutrin Working / Worked
- Is working for me. I take 300 mg in AM.
- Clonazepam Working / Worked
- I take 3 .5mg in AM and 3 .5mg in PM. I also take them as needed for PanicAnxiety Attacks.
Close ADHD / ADD
My 8 year old son has Bipolar which can also have ADHD tendencies. He has trouble sitting still in class and cannot focus when reading, cannot sit at the table to eat. He will get up and wonder off. Stops to turn on the TV and watch it instead of finishing getting ready for school in the morning.
Treatments
- Biaxin Working / Worked
- He has been put on Lamictal 50 mg started at 12.5 mg for the Bipolar to help with the Anger and since ADHD falls in with Bipolar we are hoping the Lamictal will help with it also. His teacher says he is doing much better and we have seen an improvement at home.
Open Anger Management
I have had problems with anger since I was a teen. My outlet was softball and then when I quit playing, my outlet became running and weightlifting. Once I got pregnant, I was a single mom so my anger seemed to be directed at my son's father. Now, I am angry because I am disabled, 7 surgeries in 3 years and feel like a failure to me and to my son.

Really frustrated because I have let myself gain so much weight. About 12 yrs ago I was into running & body building but when my trainer/boyfriend split, I just headed down hill. Got pregnant & then that was it. I can't seem to get my head back on straight & 7 surgeries in 3 yrs hasn't helped...I can't take anything with Caffeine so diet pills are out. Not released from doctors yet to exercise...HELP!
Open Pet Bereavement
I had my baby Bear, a beautiful Maine Coon for 16 of his 19 years. I had to have him put to sleep in late 2005. He was there for me through good times and bad. He was my best friend. I have his picture with the Rainbow Bridge poem framed beside it along with a marble box with a clipping of his hair in it beside his Urn on my dresser. I mourn for him each and every day. I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU BEAR BUG. YOU MAY BE GONE FROM MY ARMS, BUT YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!!!
