I am having kind of a rough night. I was having a good day and then all of the sudden, in the middle of watching Harry Potter, I just felt myself crash. I wanted to cut and I wanted to cry. I don't understand. Nothing significant happened today. I just want to get stable and stay stable. I went to my pdoc and we changed some meds around. I guess I don't really have it under control yet though. Sigh.

Make yourself comfy. Wrap up in a blanket on the couch and try to stay calm. It's going to take a few days to really feel the meds working. ((((hugs))))

We changed the meds about 2 weeks ago. Shouldn't it be better by now?

There does not have to be a reason to crash. It can happen just because it is part of being BP. Usually I stay border line in control of my self during an episode. Though I have been to the locked mental ward, ( at the VA ), twice in the last four years. It is probably nothing you have done wrong.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
