lets see where to begin i am considered severe treatment resistant bipolar. i have anxiety as well. so i get treated for both. i take my medication
lamictal,zyprexa,ativan,valium,ambien those are the ones i remember at the moment anyway.
i also take meds for my stomach and my migrains which are no help to my situation.
i am a single mother of 1. he is 10 and we are going through his disability review process. he has been disabled since he was born and now they are saying he doesnt qualify which if they were here every day they would see differently. so we are appealing as we should be except this time i am getting help from my family.
i am also currently applying for disability for myself as i am not able to hold down a job at the moment. it is also still in the first segment. no one knows whether or not i am going to get it and if i am denied i will also appeal that as i need the assistance now.
my brother and his gf have moved in to help with finances and my son
there are just so many changes right now i am up and down and all around it seems. i have taken as much leave from work as i am allowed and now have been let go until i am well which at that time i can reapply for any openings they have available.
its just so much at once. i am even getting audited by the state over the cost of child care that i put on my return for 2009. it seems so stupid since it is a legitimate cost and has been for 10 years. why now i wonder sometimes.
my ups and downs are quite frequent. i have issues with s.i. which i wont get into here. i hide in my room all day. i go out sometimes with someone for support.
its just been a really rough time. i am hoping if i can let some of it out on here i will be able to get through and back to being stable for awhile. not that i have ever really been stable.
