    About Me

    I am a good person. I care more about others than myself sometimes. I am here to support and be supported. I would like to learn as much as I can about dealing with life instead of hiding from it. I want to remain stable and not cycle as much as I do.

    Interests

    volleyball, motorcycles, camping, family

    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      I was diagnosed about 5 years ago. I rapid cycle and it hasn't made me give up yet but it's getting worse.

      Treatments

      Lithium Not Working
      Couldn't stand the side effects.
      Paxil Working / Worked
      40 mg once a day. Helps with the bad depression I experience.
      Tegretol Working / Worked
      Seems to stabilize me when I take it as directed. Only side effect I experience is dry mouth.
      Topamax Somewhat Helpful
      Didn't stabilize me.
      Xanax Working / Worked
      Need to sleep. Shuts my brain off without the hangover effect in the am.
