Wow, I feel like I've been on a roller coaster the past week.
I thought I was unipolar until Thursday. I've been on anti-depressants from 1987 until Thursday. I could not cry, I haven't cried for 5 years. I stuffed everything, even the anger. The doctor gave me a new anti-depressant June 10th, and by last Sunday I was out on a hypomanic shopping spree, and felt I could take on anything. I was diagnosed as Bipolar II and started on lithium Thursday, and now I'm crying over any and everything. My head hurts, and I feel "weird" can't describe it. They say lithium takes 1-3 weeks to work. What is going on here? I feel like a basket case, crying over every little thing.
