yes I been diagnosed with bipolar disorder 10 years ago. I have a daughter with autism non verbal .
and lately I feel like am on a roller coaster that does not slow down ! I have a husband that still does not understand what does being bipolar mean.I have ups and down and severe lows. It's very hard at times but I love my daughter so much she pushes me to be a better parent. Currently I not working so after the school bus picks her up I eat take my med wellburtin 300 once a day I was taking celexa 20mg but the doc change it to sequel 50mg in the day I take two 0.5 klopin for anxiety mid day just dealing with my husband retired and renal failure issues is enough to scream. At night to sleep 400mg sequel but lately that knocks me off my feet where I can't get up early enough for my daughter so bye bye 400 mg hello back to three hours or less sleep . So unhappy
