Merry-go-rounds
Around and around and around and around. . . . I've lost track now of how many things we've tried since May, but the positive effects only seem to last a week at the most, then we are plunging back down into instability. K is exhausted I know, but so am I. We go back to see his psych on Friday. Last time he took K off the mood stablizer and returned to the combination of BP, anxiety, and ADHD medications that had worked in the past. The first week back on the old meds went really well and the second week wasn't so bad (at least for me). Right before we are about to leave for a weekend trip that we'd been looking forward to all yr, his mood started to flip. Traveling with Mr. Pissy is not relaxing. Thankfully, it wasn't as bad as it could have been. Since returning home, K has started to spiral into depression. Hopefully, a good workout at the gym will help.

I feel your frustration. We have done the rounds and rounds of different meds since the spring also. We\'re in a \"good spell\" at the moment and meds finally seem to be working. Crossing my fingers that they will continue to do so. Here\'s hoping the same for your K.
Thanks for the support. Sorry it has taken a long time to get back to you. How are things going with you?
