when the depression rears it's ugly head it is very difficult for me to have sound reasoning. and yes, it is exhausting. using my pdoc during these times does help cause my meds can be tweaked to take some of the severity away til i stabalize. yeah i wish i wasn't bipolar but now that i'm dx'ed at least there is some help out there so i can have somewhat of a normal life. thank goodness.oh, what is normal? lol
just read medicated's reply...the way i see it is, can't change what is but i can do any and everything in my power to enjoy those good days, do my therapy, and when the bad comes i at least have some "tools" to get me through the worst of it. i don't enjoy those times but if i just have a tantrum about it-used to-it accomplishes nothing positive to resolve my "spell."
