Hi- I'm new here... glad to find it. I have been up all night with insomnia and am seeing my psychiatrist in the morning. Currently I am prescribed Neurontin and Celexa for my behavioral issues.
I have been going through many hard life changes as of late, ie: lost of job, bought house/living alone, broke up with fiance, experienced rape, have been dealing with intense alcohism, and self injury. In the past year my anger has intensified greatly, as well as my outbursts and inability to control them. I have become very bitter, and just generally explode into rages over small things sometimes even. Recently I have been drinking to the point of blacking out usually multiple times a week, and in these blackouts have been self mutilating to an incredible degree. More intense than it has been in a long time. I can not sleep sober, that is without some random pill or alcohol. I have had horrible insomnia for a long time now as well.
I am tired of living this way. I need help. I read the side effects of these medications I am prescribed and was astonished that so many of them have to do with these exact symptoms. I have a long history of depression, anxiety, etc and have been diagnose with Bipolar II disorder as of late, however I have been convinced for years that I am really struggling with BPD.
I have decided I must stop drinking especially. I want to change. Has anyone had success with any certain medications in dealing with these sort of symptoms? Or any experience with either Celexa or Neurontin?

Any commentary would be greatly appreciated. I'm just not sure what to do anymore.
