      From stevebhopes October 28

      How are things going in your world? I am struggling this morning, but I am far from giving up. I have a bunch of messages to respond to this morning. I left out early this morning to go to pdoc in the midst of a snowstorm. I hope you have a good day!

      It is good to have you aboard as a friend! I can relate to ptsd as I have some symptoms. As for BP we know we can relate to each other there. I am feeling pretty good today, how are things for you?

  • Support Groups

    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      To try to find others who share similar symptoms that I do and to try to better understand why I am the way I am. I was not diagnosed with Bipolar II until November 2008.

      Treatments

      Celexa Working / Worked
      I took Celexa from age 30 to 42 pretty consistently for anxiety/depression. Suddenly I was severly depressed and anxious and when the dose was increased I almost "lost it"
      Lamictal Somewhat Helpful
      At first it was wonderful and I felt more normal than I had in years but I have had the dose increased twice since then and it doesnt seem to be working as well.
      Lithium Not Working
      I took it for about a month and by the time I got to a therapuetic dose I had such gastric pain that it had to be discontinued. Also made me even more spaced out.
    • Close Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

      To learn from others who have been thru similar situations as me.

      Treatments

      Talking Somewhat Helpful
      I feel friends get tired of listening to me and feel I should be "better" by now.
      Celexa Somewhat Helpful
      Helped for awhile.
