Luckily it never effected my career or insurance. I am a journeyman/master plumber and in the construction trades they have never been that picky or done background checks or drug tests. That is changing. Most of them do drug testing now. And who knows what may turn up on a background check. I have seen and read stories about the things data miners are coming up with on individuals. Things they should never have access to yet they are coming up with it including mental health issues addiction issues. I opened a thread about it here in the tech section but it got shut down pretty quick.

Speaking of AD's and BP my Fetzima is kicking in and my depression is lifting, thank god, but I was pretty manic today. I usually get a little manic for awhile when coming out of one. They can trigger mania. I don't know if they cause bp or just trigger mania in those who are already bp.
