Being on Medications is nothing to feel bad about. Will you be on them forever ? Who knows. Right now its just about getting you stable. I would imagine you could have numerous med changes ( everyone does )

You have been all over the place mood wise lately. No one can feel good about anything when your in these kinds of mood swings.

I do think once you start to level out you will realize you have options and no treatment has to be life long.

Hang in there
Thanks, Christina.

So even though my first meds didn't really stabilize me (I think they sent me into hypo when I first started them).

I would like to at least be stable enough to do decently in college, though. That's a short-term goal I have.

Maybe this temp t appointment will go okay on friday.
