I am having trouble accepting this diagnosis today because I think I have a relatively mild version..... must remember everything is dampened down by meds and remember what life was like before meds. Definitely more intense up and down.

I feel angry with myself for a purchase I made when I was really involved in looking for a woman on the side (bisexual). I had made plans with someone that fell through. It was supposed to be for those plans. I wish I didn't buy it and it's just burning a hole in my purse. I feel so odd walking around with it and thinking how people have no idea I have it. But it was so right at the time.

Hey -- I can completely relate (at least to first two paragraph...and partly the third).

My BP is mild -- but unchecked I do some really oddball stuff....if you add in any non-prescription chemicals (drugs/alcohol) and I really go off the deep end.

It's really odd...I take my meds and I don't feel anything overly crazy like I did without them...except for a light propensity to the hypo side.

Anyway -- hang in there.
Thanks for this!
