Welcome Manic Most Days. I went to for a second opinion cuz he was the original dr that sent me to pdoc. I was concerned more as to whether or not I needed the meds. Trying to believe I can go without these (what I thought was alot) meds. I sometimes feel emotionless but this combo of Wellbutrin and Lamictal HAS been the best concoction so far out of soooooo many I tried. He told me I was so badly manic that there is NO WAY I can go off without being a mess again. He said he sees people like me usually when they went off meds and super manic again and he was proud I saw him for consult instead of just going off meds. He's been my Dr soooo long and he said he's never seen me in such a "good frame of mind" as I am now. He reminded me of how severe I was and because I had no conception of right from wrong, that now that I'm good, I'm not noticing how bad I was. Lol did that make any sense. I had to read that over myself!! He said most times I came in to see him I talked so fast and the stuff that came out of my mouth was shocking. He reminded me if my massive impulse purchases and my VERY inhibited sexual experiences that couldve put myself in many situations whether health wise or YUP marriage wise. My husband stuck with me through all of this and I am very very grateful. I'm just never thrilled with feeling "normal" as DR said. I sometimes miss my crazy popular self. But I know I was popular for all the wrong reasons. I happy my GP who's known me through it all has confirmed I'm doing just perfect and to learn to accept I'm doing good things now.
