    About Me

    I live at home with my Mum and my Brother (27) and my pets 2 dogs (Poppy-7 and Coco-1)a budgie (sky) and 1 rat (Squeak)and a new edition a Guinea Pig (Manic) lol! I'm a second year veterinary nurse currently having my job held open until I'm (hopefully) well enough to return. I'm a very VERY deep thinker sometimes probably a little too deep. I feel like if I wasn't ill I would have made a pretty good psychologist like Robson Green's character from Wire In The Blood (if anyone has seen it)

    Interests

    I play acoustic and elec. guitar and piano. I love my music and I mostly like Rock although I am pretty open minded. I used to be a huge fan of Busted lol. I also do a lot of art in my spare time. So maybe I'll post some of my work on here if anyone is interested. I also love to write poetry although the majority of it is pretty dark.

    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      Diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder in Dec 06. Still not stabilized. Been having treatment resistant reactions to a lot of the meds I've tried. Looking for support.

      Treatments

      Celexa Working / Worked
      Tried it and it did wor for about 2/3 weeks but then it didn't kick in again. Pdoc changed med rather than keep increasing it. No side effects.
      Depakote Working / Worked
      Went up to 750mg and was working for a while but this also didn't hang around long. Side effects - Some hair loss but not noticable...actually stopped the med before it got any worse anyway. Also possibly some weight gain but not sure...(was on other meds causing weight gain at the same time)
      Lamictal Too Soon to Tell
      Changed from Depakote in...Sept/Oct? Slowly increased up to 150mg which I am currently on now. Side effects - Increased number of headaches but nothing I can cope with...I suffer with Migrane anyway.
      Remeron Somewhat Helpful
      So far the antidepressant is really being tested alongside another but I have found that taking this at night has really helped my sleep as it has some sedative. Side effects - weight gain.
    • Close Self-Injury

      I first self harmed when I was 14 but no one except my school councillor knew. I went a couple of years until I begame ill again and I have started cutting again.

      Treatments

      Rubber Bands Somewhat Helpful
      It helped for a little while
      Writing Somewhat Helpful
      Takes the edge off whilst talking at the time
      Music Working / Worked
      When turned up it helps block thoughts. I'm able to listen to lyrics rather than my thoughts.
    • Open Personality Disorders

      Treatments

      Helps if things arn't too bad.
      Psychotherapy Too Soon to Tell
      Not really very effective at the moment. Feeling stuck.
