    • About Me

      I am 38 years old, people say I look and act younger.. I'll take that! Diagnosed with Bipolar I w/mixed episodes in Feb 2008 after I landed myself involuntarily in the hospital after a suicide attempt/plan while in a Dysphoric Mania that was caused due to being only on anti D's. I have my master's degree in social work and work in that profession. I have a passion for music. I love going to concerts! They make me feel free! I love lyrics to music, it helps me identify with my moods. I like to read and sing karaoke with friends. I am pretty blunt, i say how i feel whether you like it or not. No time to lie, fuck that. I have a mouth of a sailor (sometimes, not all the time) and my mom hates it but says she understands why i get like that. I have very supportive parents. I visit with them and talk to them on the phone all the time. If it weren't for their love and support i for sure would not be on this earth. I believe in Karma, the Karma you give is the Karma you get back. I must have done something right to be so fortunate to have wonderful friends (and family) in my life.

    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      I was dx with Bipolar Disorder I with Mixed Episodes in February 2008. I am gathering as much information as possible and seeking to understand this ugly disease. I also feel i need to reach out to others who understand what it's like to live with Bipolar Disorder.

      Treatments

      Lithium Somewhat Helpful
      i dislike side effects. I feel it helps in conjunction with my other meds.
      Seroquel Working / Worked
      if it weren't for the seroquel i would not be sleeping. Even if i was tired i would hardly get any sleep. I wanted to sleep but it was like too much was going on in my brain and i can't chill it out! So it helps. yet if i take it too late I can't get up! I'm too tired!
      Tegretol Somewhat Helpful
      i believe this works in conjunction w/the lithium.
      Topamax Working / Worked
      this works wonder for my migraines. I used to get several per month and now only a couple! however, i loath the side effects. I feel delayed and stupid. I cannot recall things quickly like i used to, even remember something basic. My short term memory has gone to crap.
