Let`s talk about Bipolar

@Bunniekins

I have thought this too. Only just found this thread. I’ve had a bunch of them for it. Some I didn’t like.

@Doog @Bunniekins @ I've been on mood stabilisers, anti psychotically, anti depressants, for over twenty years. I still go through the mill most days. I've recently started taking drugs to reduce impulsive behaviours. Didn't stop me having an alcohol fuelled episode that landed me with an assault charge that I don't remember doing because I blacked out. My life is shit atm.

Hey @Spartacus1 ,

I'm sorry to hear things are so hard for you at the moment. Do you think the medication has helped at all?

In the past, I was taking mood stabilizers for over 10 years. Then one day, during an ED visit, they pretty much said, "What are you taking these for?" and I haven't taken them since because they actually weren't doing anything.

I am, however, taking anti-depressants and anti-psychotics/anti-anxiety meds which def are helping.

I wonder if a medication review will help you?

Sorry for the shit you're going through @Spartacus1 .I'm a late starter! Today I'm going good. Which probably means tomorrow I'll be agitated and irritable for maybe a couple of days and then return to depression for a week or so then replay. My toolbar just goes out the windows when I need it most. Incidentally I found a thread about tool kits you might want to investigate. I found it very useful. Hang in there.

@Spartacus1 hi Spartacus1 hoping today is a better day for you. life can be a b*tch for those with bipolar. greenpeax

I'm going to suggest that to my gp when I see her next. Thankyou.

Hang in there mate.

Depressed. No energy. Wish it would end. @Spartacus1 @tyme @
