Hi, Me BP,
This is a process. In my case I needed 1) alot of patience and strength, 2) alot of faith that I could get through it, 3) alot of faith that my pdoc would help me get through it, 4) alot of faith that this work would be worth it someday, 5) belief that I was worth it. It worked. I did get better. When I was first dx'd I needed 4 or 5 years to find the right meds. This was in the late 80s/early 90s. I think med trails take less time now. Hold on. You are worth it.  Your pdoc can help you if you help her. Remember that it is ok to have temporary set backs and feel bad. But try to keep in mind that it gets better enventually/ in the long run. Mari |

I'm going to try real hard. I'm heading out now and I hope I can get it out. We need to talk and she needs to listen. I just need her to put herself in my shoes, not that she'd want to. I look like an absolute zombie.
 I don't know who said mania was a nice feeling but it sure doesn't feel it. I just need to come down because this is waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too tiring and I'm drained. Cross fingers I can open my mouth and not shut her out too.

How'd it go? Are you ok? well, duh, yeah. I know it's not ok, but did you get through your appointment ok?
This has been a tough weekend. I remember not wanting to believe in my BP and I didn't EVEN want to hear about fibromyalgia. Both of them ticked me off. My doc just shook her head and said I needed to figure it out. I think it's so hard to believe one can be bipolar because we all buy into the stigma attached to it. That we should have more control over ourselves. I know I did. (aw heck, I can't lie. I still believe I should be able to control my temper, depression, agression.  I am still working on it.)But I remember being so angry. And you do not know how many meds I dropped because of the side effects. You can only live with nausea, headaches, memory loss, seizures and so on for so long. Docs gotta listen too. I hope she heard you today. I hope you get to try something that isn't so hard to take. |
