Ok, so I know I started this post with a question but I am also going to vent a little, sorry.
Here are my medications: 2,000 mg Depakote 100 Lamictal 800 mg Seroquel 200mg Trazadone (for sleeping) 60 mg Restoril (for sleeping) 2 mg Ativan as needed I have been in a mixed state for about a month now and I want out! My hands are shaking non stop and I am lucky to get 2 hour stretches of sleep, and my sleep is horrible - nothing but dreams and nightmares all night long. I will shut up now Posted on 01/28/08, 09:01 pm |

I shake real bad when the anxiety is bad. I still don't know the different phases of bipolar, but I do know that I suffer a great deal from anxiety.
Either I can be non-stop, productive, focused and like the energizer bunny with the pressured speech, or I can be non-stop, restless, totally unfocused, fast pressured speech, shaking inside and out, and totally miserable from it all. Although I have been dx'd and put on disability for BP, it also included severe anxiety and panic attacks. I HATE the shaking uncontrollable anxiety periods. I can't stay still, but yet I can't do anything either.

A lot of us seem to get the nightmares and weird dreams. I don't know what the answer is but I wish they would stop.
