Yeah, um, well... Lol
See, I had thought that I had it all under control for the most part. I mean, I won't deny that there were still some symptoms of depression, but they weren't a big problem for a while.
The tics got really bad right about the time I was trying to stop the self-injury. ER doctors thought they were from meds I had taken or just psychological.
The first time I saw the specialist, she wanted me to see the psychiatrist just to check up and make sure there wasn't a problem. He suggested talk therapy just as an outlet. I did take his suggestion. Now my mood swings n everything are getting worse...to the point that this therapist has mentioned the idea that I might actually be bipolar. I explained the mood swings and irritability to the specialist last time I emailed her.

I've been taking clonidine since May and now I've taken sertraline for about a week now.

I had one of those days today where I was really hyper and literally runnin n bouncin all over the place and squealin like a weirdo! Lol And I kinda started to tic a bit, and my mom said "You know, you're all hyper and excited andstuff today. And now you're startin' this. Seems like it was the same way last time you started to tic really bad." So, I don't know...
