The past few days, maybe for a week or so, I have been full of ideas, like re-joining my gym, starting yoga classes, buying clothes, etc. I only sleep about 5-6 hours a night. I'm trying not to drink (I got a secondary diagnosis of Alcohol Abuse from my pdoc) but I really want to get a bottle of champagne, I feel like going out and partying with my friends, I'm e-mailing a guy that made a pass at me a few months ago, I just wanna have fun, fun, fun. I went thru this about 6 months ago too.
I'm on Lamictal and Zyprexa and Xanax...what's going on? Is it possible they are not working?
I have lists of stuff I wanna do cuz the ideas are coming so fast, I talk so fast that I stutter.
I think I'm answering my own question...guess I better see my pdoc tomorrow at my outpatient program..sigh...I really don't want to change or add meds to what I take already..argh!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
The meds don't do everything and it's up to us to do the rest. I think it's a good idea to see your pdoc since we're not always aware or in control.
Anyway let us know how you're doing! I do urge the pdoc talk.
peace,
