- Does the fact that antipsychotics (or antidepressants for that matter)improve your function and make you feel better prove that you need them? Or would anyone "normal" feel better also? Couldnt find much on google.
- I'm interested in a support group for parenting with mentall illness. I searched and came up empty. I'm pretty new to this site and not sure how to do things....can anyone who's been here a while tell me if they know of a group for parenting with...
- My pdoc has me questioning some things.Does your pdoc give you seperate diagnoses or lump all the symptoms of other disorders in to bipolar disorder? I have alot of symptoms of ptsd, and he admitted I had ocd tendencies and generalized anxiety...
- Anyone take it prn for severe anxiety? My pdoc refused to give me benzos saying they'd make my mood symptoms worse in the long run. I know alot of you take them, do you agree or disagree? The Vistaril seems placebo....I mean, it's an antihistamine,...
- If you haven't, take this personality test. It's pretty good and I found it so insightful.https://www.16personalities.comAnyway, I've read INFJs are the most susceptible to mental disorders, including bipolar. Anyone else an INFJ?
- I think it is a mixed state. Or rather a mixed state, rapid cycling between hypomanic and depressed. Yesterday I was bouncing off the walls at work, making everyone laugh. I couldnt stop talking and pacing around. I felt this buzzing throughout my...
- I've been struggling, but I dont really feel depressed and I'm not manic.I'm very anxious and sometimes it wells up into panic attacks. Quite often I'm in severe mental anguish, not classically depressed and not manic....but I'm clearly not stable....
- In hindsight I believe June of last year to be the month my mania started. It's been one year. An entire year of instability. I've been under psychiatric care for 9 of those 12 months with little to I'd say more like NO mood stability. It's been...
- Hi. I've never posted here before but I hang out pretty regularly on the bipolar board.Has anyone here ever been diagnosed with both bipolar and OCD? I've read that the 2 are not diagnosed together, that symptoms of OCD are just a part of bipolar...
- I've read different psychiatric opinions on the subject, some saying the OCD thinking patterns are just part of bipolar and not actual OCD, yet others saying it is a possible comorbid diagnosis. The main difference that I see is that when the...
- My demons are haunting me. My mind keeps swirling with every awful thing I've ever said or done. Why are some days like this? It's the worst feeling in the world. How do you find peace?

- Wondering if atypical antipsychotics can cause your vision to feel like its "swimming", it feels like my eyes move like they're on a boat mixed with vertigo. It's weird. I know some can cause vision changes but this came on very suddenly. Not sure...
- They decided to up the rexulti since I was still at a low dose to see if that can stop the attacks from even surfacing. I'm on 2mg now instead of 1.5. I think 2mg is pretty standard and the maximum is 4 I think. The nurse I saw (whom I dont care...
- Anyone on buspar for anxiety? My pdoc mentioned it last time but I'm always so reluctant to start new meds for fear of losing my progress away from depression or crappy side effects so I didn't do it. But now I'm wondering if maybe it would help....
