Close Bipolar Disorder
I'm diagnosed with Bipolar I, and have been since I was 17. They thought I was depressed (I had been self injuring for 2 years at that point) but I kind of went super manic when they put me on more celexa. They finally got me straightened out and stable for a few years, then I got pregnant. I was fine untill I had my baby girl. Now with the whole post partum thing, it's kinda been hell. My psychiatrist is helping me through though, and I'm trying some new meds. Still haven't kicked the SI though
Treatments
- Abilify Somewhat Helpful
- It works to keep me not so manic, but it makes me irritable if I go over 10mg Side effects: not as hungry....just feeling funny
- Celexa Not Working
- I used to be on it. It worked for a little bit then set off my mania. Coming off of it was a BITCH. Google "brain shivers" or "SSRI withdrawal syndrome"
- Dialectical Behavioral Therapy Working / Worked
- Amazing. I don't know what I would do without it.
- Geodon Somewhat Helpful
- It took my mania away and was really helpful almost immediately but I was a total space cadet when I was on it. That's why I came off it. I couldn't stand it.
- Lamictal Working / Worked
- I've been on it for almost 2 years. Very good at keeping me stable. Works best for the depression. No side effects other than it taste like crap
- Lithium Not Working
- I had a rare reaction to it. My body couldn't tolerate it. All that happened to me was I was thirsty all the time, shook a lot and wasn't hungry.
- Seroquel Working / Worked
- Very good at taking the edge off manic aggression. You'll sleep until next tuesday though :)

Treatments

- Squeezing Ice Working / Worked

- Talking Working / Worked
- I'm a member of buslist.org, a site for people that SI. It's kind of like this group but a whole site. It's nice.
