      From jeansmind October 11

      Not much or time to write to you. I just go online to see if I have any hugs or messages...Read yours. Glad you understand....I have my boys this weekend. It's the only time I feel "NORMAL" ....Seriously, my whole frame of mind changes...and of course the mood is sooooooo much better. Whenever they have to go to their father's place, I feel so empty and lonely inside, lost really....Even though I know I will see them again... I guess I will never accept this outcome, or forgive their father for putting me through this heartache.....

      I am here because I am recently diagnosed and am struggling to understand the disorder, manage its affects on my family, life, etc. and to find ways to improve my life now that I understand better what is going on with me.

      Treatments

      Ativan Working / Worked

      Lamictal Working / Worked
      mood 95% of the time elevated. only short periods of depression.
      Lithium Not Working
