I totally feel what your saying. My worst day was a week ago today. Started Seroquel on Monday and today I feel like I did when I smoked a joint for the first time.

wellbutrin increased my manic tendancies... perhaps its not that youre on meds, but youre not on the RIGHT meds (or combo thereof)

I was diagnosed late in life even though I've been crazy for years and years. I wised I had known. I would not have put my poor family through what I have. I would not marry or spread this awful gene. We belong on the island of mis-fit toys. Do you think Santa will still take us?

I agree with the other posts... personally your post sounds like me when I am mixed... Are you on a mood stabilzer??? If not welbutrin with out one can definantly kick you manic or mixed...

I would make them see you asap as there is no reason you should suffer a med induced state like this. Or even a state like this that isnt med induced... there are good meds to help stablize you

    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...
