Hi, I'm Leigh. I have Bipolar, Adult ADD, and PTSD. I'm fairly stable now with my meds but still having problems with depression. In truth, I do have a reason to be depressed. In the past 2 1/2 years my youngest son died. He was bipolar and suicidal so he called the EMT's to take him to ER and placed in hospital. The doctor prescribed opiates and diazepams and my son went into respiratory arrest, spent 5 days on live support and was an organ donor. My husband is 17 yrs. older than I am and he's been very sick during the last year. He's had both kidney failure and cardiac problems. Thank God he seems to be doing better now. But full time caregiving is very draining. And on February 5th my oldest son committed suicide. He also had mental health issues. Don't know how much more I can handle. On the positive side, Bill, my husband is less depressed than he has been before. Hopefully his improved mood will remain so that he will continue to do the exercises that physical therapy taught him. I do have a wonderful daughter. She has Asperger's and Sensory Integration Disorder and uses a guide dog. She's exceptionally bright and is working to develop an organization that will help others learn to train their own dogs for their specific needs. I'm having great difficulty with motivation now.....know what needs to be done but not accomplishing much. So I came here. I hope to meet others and develop friendships.
