Day 5 on Seroquel and I'm feeling a bit fuzzy and really sleepy. I've been Bipolar for 20+ years but I've only been aware of it for about a week. Now as I try to bring this mixed episode to a freaking halt so I can start working again and support my family, I'm also left with trying to figure out who the hell I really am. I thought I knew. But damn near all of my defining qualities and experiences have turned out to be nothing more than symptoms of mental illness. What the hell am I supposed to do with that information???

Maybe a nap will help.
