- Doesn't anyone else decide "I don't need meds!!" every time they get manic?Suddenly, I'm going two or three days at a time without sleep and don't get back on my meds until I am either hallucinating or spiraling downward into oblivion!If I...
- CRAP!!!!!I went over 5 years without cutting and a few months ago, I broke that streak. I've have more trouble but was able, barely, to resist...until tonight. I cut myself about 30 times. That might actually be a record for me. Yay me (O_o). so now...

- What happens when you realize that you will never achieve your dreams? Not even the down-graded ones that seemed, at one time, to be more realistic.What happens when you realize you will never be able to function the way you once did much less the...
- For those of you who get them, how severe are they for you?The counseling center I go to recently changed which doctor I see. I had told the previous doc that I started having tremors and thought it was a side effect of my meds. She had me take a...
- Nothing obliterates my depression like playing with puppies!! Even when they become big puppies.I don't have any pets anymore and my current landlord doesn't allow them BUT that was one thing that never failed to bring a smile to my face. I soooo...
- I am conflicted. I'm not accustomed to letting people in but I want to. I'm always one to say that I'm an open book. I always act like me and will voice my opinions about anything you ask me about. But /this/ I hold back. I've heard close...
- Funny that I'm writing about this pretty late due to having trouble sleeping but I am trying at least. Recently, I've had some long periods of insomnia fueled by intense mania. Thoughts racing, body twitching. I've gone off my meds a few times...
- I've not been doing well lately and it didn't seem like my meds were doing much so when one of them (lithium) ran out two weeks early (prescription error), I just quit taking it. Two weeks later, I missed my appointments with my doc and therapist...
- ...when they ask how you are doing?-----------------------------------------------------------------*WARNING: I realized after typing this that I am very long winded and verbose so I'm will post a TL;DR version right...
- ...when they ask how you are doing?I take a very strong stance on not lying to people for any reason and always try to be 100% honest...or at least I used to. Crazy and hard, I know, but I felt strongly that you should always aim for this. Some...
- I have a hard time answering some of the questions that doctors ask me. My doctors have asked me so many questions and so have the SSDI doctors and I don't even know how confused I am right now over how I have answered them in the past. Depending...
- I've always had issues with depression even before my issues with bipolar and have had long bouts where I lost interest in all the things that I once enjoyed with one exception...food; I've always enjoyed eating. I've always had a wicked fast...
- This may seem like a totally weird question but I need to know if this has happened to anyone else here. I never told anyone before but after being told that some people in a state of mania experience a feeling that they have extraordinary powers...
- It's been about a week since my meeting with the Disability pdoc to give me an evaluation. I had my physical eval that same day for my Fibro and took pain meds and anxiety pills before each one so that I could cope long enough to get through them. ...
