Hi Everyone! I'm new here.
I was diagnosed with bi-polar about 6 months ago. (Although I've been fairly certain my whole life this was the case.) I'm 31 and work in Insurance. My moods continue to be unstable despite my meds being increased/changed. I'm currently on Lamictal - has anyone had any success with it?
I feel constantly irritated like I want to jump out of my own skin. My moods change so frequently that I have a hard time even keeping track.
I went to the DR. because my friends always joked saying that I must have ADHD. I came out of the DR. with a diagnosis of bi-polar. I'm always fidgety, feel like I have 30303 ideas at the same time & I'm usually extremely irritated. I'll get an idea like "lets go to law school" or "lets write a book".. and maybe even start that idea and never finish it. I can never sit still or concentrate for a long period of time.
My friends & partner always complain/make fun that I talk so much and so fast.
I tend to be very paranoid which causes problems in most of my relationships. I'm hoping to find the right support group/ combo of meds that will help me. I go from loving someone to being angry with them for no reason. When I'm "down" or "angry", I cannot control it.
I'm glad I found this forum - I look forward to chatting with you all!
