Close Bipolar Disorder
I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder during mid-life transitions. I worked as a psychotherapist up until then. Now life is very flat, frightening, sometimes. I cycle too quickly and meds don't always help. This is either going to destroy my faith in God or build it up nice and strong... so far I'm doing the wrestling with God bit. I hope he wins!
Treatments
- Fish Oil Too Soon to Tell
- I take it every day but am not sure if it is helping me or not... doctor's orders!
- Holistic Health Working / Worked
- yoga, vitamin supplements, healthy eating and prayer
- Lamictal Working / Worked
- Since Jan. 2006 it has worked in between manic episodes to keep me peaceful... but I still have frequent breakthrough depression and mania.
- Physical Exercise Working / Worked
- It helps me tremedously to work my body hard. I am able to stay out of my head and focus on a healthy part of me... how my body responds to intentional hard work.
- Prayer Working / Worked
- I AM MOVED OUT OF MYSELF AND INTO WERE gOD IS, IN HIS HOLY SPIRIT. gOD IS SO GOOD!
- Lamictal Working / Worked
- It's probably all into my system nwo, the newm higher dosage. I am afraid of the break-through manias. Praying for them not to come on again. Wouldn't that be fantastic?!
