    • About Me

      Business owner. Married and 2 children, a boy and a girl. I have recently been diagnosed with Bipolar 1 after dealing with it for years. Thought it was normal until I hit bottom and got some help. It was just getting too much to handle. I am glad I did but worried about the meds and dealing with knowing what I have now.

      I have just been diagnosed with bipolar disorder. This has been un or misdiagnosed for years. I apparently have had this for years now and I thought it was normal for me.

      Treatments

      Group Therapy Somewhat Helpful
      Groups were okay for some things. Opening up was a big issue for me in front of people.
      Lithium Working / Worked
      Risperdal Working / Worked
      Helped with the mania and sleeping but that was about it.
      Seroquel Working / Worked
      I use it for helping me sleep. Seems to work well but I am useless the next day.

      I am here to understand more of what the other side sees about BP.
