I've been diagnosed as MDD for most of my life along with ADD and GAD. Last year, my doc and I debated Bipolar disorder and for a while I was on a med for that and then we both decided for me to go off it, in May.

I've never quite meet the textbook definations for Bipolar, but there is enough hints that I believe it's possible that I am.

The last two weeks have been uncomfortable. It started with increased anxiety, enough that I was concerned about the amount of Xanax and Klonpin I was taking, so I called and talked to my doctor and he agreed that I wasn't anywhere in trouble with the dosages I was taking. I was also having trouble sleeping, so we added back ambian, and increased Effexor. That was Friday night.

Saturday, I briefly awoke for the morning shows, remember seeing the clock at 7PM and slept the entire day, no eating, not going to the bathroom, just zonked. Sunday I slept in till 12pm. Sunday night, I took an ambien at 10, another at 12:30, and three Xanax at 3AM, I was completely awake all night.
Monday, I took an ambien at 10, another at 12 something, and think I may have gotten three hours sleep.

Additionally, anxiety is still high, I'm picking up on other things, irritable, possibly pressured speech, completely focused obsessed with doing something (booking a vacation). And I'm just overall not comfortable in my skin, plus wanting to cry steadily for the last three weeks.

Yesterday, I called and made the earliest appointment with my doc that I could which is Friday. I'm just so freaking uncomfortable. The lack of sleep plus the anxiety is killing me and I just don't feel good.
