About Me
I am a 27 year old female whom is currently pursuing a Masters degree in Educational Psychology. I have an eight year old son and a seven month old son. My fiance has been diagnosed as BP and I need support to contiue dealing with this! He is taking Trileptol which seems to help...but he still cycles and when he does--everyone else is the problem. We have made so much improvement over the last six months but I am still scared to get married because then there is no going back. I dont know what to do!

Close Bipolar Disorder
Oh lordy...still working on dealing with the emotionl aspects of this disorder in my partner. We havent been together long; but, after bringing him into my oldest son's life and creating another baby with him...I feel like i should stand by him. I am just so scared that he will never take this issue seriously! I am so terrified to follow through with the marraige!
Treatments
- Depakote Working / Worked
- Well, if he would take it regularly it seems to help. makes him pretty sleepy though which is bad for him as a truck driver. Right now he is on 1000mg a day.
- Effexor Not Working
- Worked at first but then really made him aggressive and irritable.
- Trileptal Working / Worked
- Seems to be helping. he still cycles but it is more managable and he isn't a zombie like he was on Depakote.
Close Gastric Bypass Surgery
had Gastric bypass 3 years ago...lost nearly 200 lbs in a year and a half. Stopped losing about 1.5 years post op...75 lbs from goal weight. LOL, then I began dating someone that is bi-polar...talk about stress (love him lots though) and gained 12 lbs. now I am 8.5 months pregnant and have gained 15 lbs throughout the entire thing...sure hope breastfeeding works :0) anyone know how to get a revision covered by insurance?
Open Anxiety
Ok, so I worry about EVERYTHING. no official Diagnosis yet...definately gonna go to the Doctore for that after I have my baby (4 more weeks). I hate to drive, dont want to leave the house, obsess over the worst possible scenario for every situation..it goes on and on. I'd love to talk to people to find out if I am a candidate for GAD or if i am just a worry wart who is depressed.
Treatments
- Lexapro Working / Worked
- Worked while I took it but had to stop after two months because I got pregnant.
Open Pregnancy
Ok, so I am due is 4 weeks and I feel like this little Sh*& is hanging from my ribcage. Wish i woulda found this site a lot sooner :0)
Open Diets & Weight Maintenance
Treatments
- Eating Healthier Foods Too Soon to Tell
- Gonna get this down a little better once I give birth!
- Eat Less Somewhat Helpful
- my eyes are always bigger than my stomach and after I take the food, I feel like I must finish it.
- Gastric Bypass Surgery Working / Worked
- I lost quite a bit of weight with this. However, because I did not deal with myemotional issues behind my weight issues, I stopped losing weight after a year and a half.
