Hey all,

I just recently went on back to prescription meds after 2 years without them. Apparently, after two hospitalizations, the docs were quite sure that my med free method wasn't good enough

However, I now feel less in control of my mood swings than usual. When I'm manic, holymolyIamsomanicIcan'tstoptalkingcrazyfastanddancing and when I'm depressed, instant tears. And the changes are a lot faster- I can go from one side of the spectrum to the other in a split second. I was always very easily triggered, but these days, I'm walking on eggshells around myself.

Overall, my baseline mood is way higher and my anxiety, thanks to very heavy dosing, is basically nonexistent. But, I feel really out of control and couldn't even tell you what my own triggers are.

I'm thinking it may just be because I haven't reached therapeutic levels yet (they started me on really low doses because I fall victims to ALL the side effects) but, has anybody else experienced this problem or something similar? It's really scary. I'm not a fan.

And yes, I will talk to my pdoc about it at my appt on the 12th

Thanks for reading. Just needed a little support on this issue.
