Bipolar Disorder Support Group
Bipolar disorder is not just a single disorder, but a category of mood disorders marked by periods of abnormally high energy and euphoria, often accompanied by bouts of clinical depression. This is the place to talk about your experience with bipolar disorder, learn from others' experiences, and find support.
Hey guys!! This is a rant. Sorry, but it just has to be. I hope you are all doing okay, but I am pissed. That stupid bitch that I saw today didn't write me anything at all for pain. The only thing she ordered was hydrotherapy. Makes me hate the guts of my former pain doctor that quit writing my meds because of the bipolar. I wish now that I had never told him about it. Me and my stupid ass mouth!!!!!
I was in a "righteous" period then though. I had to be perfectly righteous about everything in my life no matter what. Fucking idiot!! I just don't know what I am going to do now for pain.
The only pain meds I have been having was/is only the few that we rake up and scrape up money to buy from a friend and she can't get rid of too many because her hubby needs them. Plus a very few that Jim has been getting when he gets a tooth pulled once a month. Have to take one and a half of those to get an hours or two worth of any kind of relief. Then for about 2-1/2-3 weeks outta the month, I have to hurt. Then I have to share with Jim what I do get and don't even know that he hurts half the time.........he just likes the hype of them.
I feel so distraught. I am so tired of hurting. Anywho, I am sorry for this negative post, but I thank you guys for your love and support.
Hugs,
Chelle

The only reason I'm doing okay tonight, Zany, is because of pain meds and muslce relaxants I need occasionally.
Please understand, I wasn't accusing you of ever having abused meds. I'm just sayin that maybe a doctor wrote that in one of your files. I was shocked when I found out. Thank God I wound up with a gp who has common sense.
bpcravingpeace lives near me and gave me the name and number to the pain management place she went to. I am going to call them tomorrow. Gotta keep trying. Can't just lay down and quit.
Thanks Melanie!!
Love ya girl
Thanks, Ms. Dash!! Love dem piggies!! Oink!! Oink!!
Pink Piggy.............I will try that if this one that bpcravingpeace gave to me. She lives about an hour away from me and that is where the doc is located. She saw a woman. Maybe this woman has got some sense!! That one I saw today sure didn't.
God help you. I don't know what to even say. Fucking hellish nightmare life can be. I know what pain feels like hon. You are ALWAYS there for your friends and I am praying for you. I'm a stranger to you but I've seen how wonderful you are with others who are stressed to the nth and wanting some feedback.
Oh and holy hell how I know what it's like to speak out of wanting to be honest only to have that truth come up and bite you when you least expect it. Please, if you any energy tell your doctor just what you said here. That the fact that you have bipolar disorder does not mean you should be sentenced to a life with pain. ARGH! I am screaming inside at those MFs.

Cammie.........nyea. Just a lil' bit.
Thanks, Steph.
Tell your next doc that it's about quality of life! You are such a wonderful person. My fingers will be crossed tomorrow for you finding a Dr. with empathy and compassion.
