    • I’m With You

      From marionpip November 19

      Hi beinghere

      I think you've solved the problem in your name. I found that accepting that I have and will have bp for the rest of my life, unless a cure is found during that time, has helped a lot. I've certainly go through frequent moods during my many years with bp and found extreme seriousness linked to depressive episodes .

      Good luck with hopefully soon cycling into something more positive.

      With love and light from South Africa

      Marion

    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      to help others and receive help coping with bipolar disorder and the symptoms I have yet to take control over: racing thoughts, handling emotions, keeping things simple, and not getting stressed out about nonsense are some things I would like to work on.

      Treatments

      Abilify Not Working
      pretty bad overall. helps come down from mania quicker, but I felt numb and dumb on it- felt like I was living in a dark world and had to feel my way around until I stopped taking it and the lights came on. It's now much easier to see.
      Group Therapy Somewhat Helpful
      for me group therapy was most helpful in outpatient care. I found it made me feel worse when I attended months after my hospitalization.
      Lithium Working / Worked
      thank you lithium.
      Risperdal Not Working
      didnt work- made me lactate.
      Wellbutrin Not Working
      didnt do anything to me.
      Zyprexa Not Working
      same as abilify
