    • Prayer

      From FreedomfromFear October 25

      I am sorry you are going through such a confusing time. You are a very level-headed woman, and I don't believe you will be in this state of mind long. I can relate to what feeling "numb" is like. Sometimes I just am like that, and at other times, I talk myself into being "numb" so I don't feel pain, confusion and other negative feelings. I wish you the best and that you feel betted God Speed.

    • Prayer

      From FreedomfromFear October 23

      I pray everything goes well for you, and you work out the difficulties with your confusion about making decisions soon.

    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      I have been bipolar since age 17, I have been stable since mid 2003. I am here for support and advice in trying to LIVE my life, instead of only worrying about staying stable.

      Treatments

      Ativan Working / Worked
      This has helped greatly to reduce my social and general anxiety. No noticeable side effects.
      Depakote Not Working
      It helped stabilize me after a psychotic break, but my hair started falling out and I got so upset, I changed to Lamictal. My hair never completely filled back in, but it's better.
      Lamictal Working / Worked
      The mood stabilizer I depend on and has kept me relatively stable.
      Risperdal Working / Worked
      Makes me a bit drowsy so I take it before bed.
      Wellbutrin Working / Worked
      The only antidepressant that has ever worked for me.
