    • About Me

      I am married for 25yrs (Not Happily)I have two children a daughter who is 23 and a son who is 20. My passion is summer I love the beach. Long drives in my car with music is my escape from life. I am no longer working I am now on permanent disablity. I did work in finance field. I hate to say I have Bi-polar its a name that has a stigma attached to it.So I don't really tell many people about it. I live one day at a time. Some days are ok most are not great. Loving caring person. Bit shy at times.

    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      To be able to talk with other's who are dealing with issue's like mine, I could use some friends who understand what I am going thru at times, friends and family who don' understand this disorder just can't help me. I do give them phamplets to educate them but they don't get it, I have been in therapy for 12 years now. It's been along winding road of highs and lows and a few stay's in the hospital as well.

      Treatments

      Ativan Working / Worked
      It work's eventually...no side effects at all...
      Lamictal Working / Worked
      Yes it has helped, no side effects at all...
      Zyprexa Somewhat Helpful
      It helps but it will put weight on so be careful with this one...
    • Close Breakups & Divorce

      I have been married for 25yrs of which I would have to say the last 5 years I have really wanted to get out,I realized this early on when we were married 10yrs I asked for a divorce back then felt sorry for my kids and him and stayed for the kids mostly. I did leave last year for 6 months came back because I became ill and wanted to be with my children so I am here in the same situation do I stay or do I go..I need help. I also have Bi-polar disorder.

      Treatments

      Forgiveness Somewhat Helpful
      I can forgive but I just cannot seem to forget.
      Leave Somewhat Helpful
      As I said I did leave was very happy even laughing again, but got sick again and just wanted to be around my kids..
      Love Not Working
      definately not...
      Music Working / Worked
      works for me not for the marriage calms me down a great deal...
      Talking Not Working
      He is just blind to all of this and because of my childhood I am actually afriad to approach him at times. But when I do we argue and its always my fault. So I stopped trying to talk.
      Time Not Working
      I have given this so much time to work..
