So I'm starting to really take notice ever since i thought of the idea that i have bipolar disorder, I've gone the last months in a deepish depression and found that I have started making decisions I (think) I would never normally make.
This is the longest period that it's lasted, it's been about 5 months I've been in such a depressed state. There have been a few days here and there that I've felt manic. But the longest its existed (the manic state) is probably a week and a half. Normally, I'm manic for 2-3 months with a period of 4-6 months of depression. During the highs, I feel like I'm above everyone else, during my lows, I feel like the world wouldn't blink an eye if I had died.
I've gained weight (which isn't necessarily odd, considering I've been working out a ton and eating tons of healthy food), but I've also gained a lot more fat.
I am actually how great I feel during my highs, while i'm in low lows.
I feel like the addition of Abilify has affected my manic state of mind. I feel like Abilify has stopped the manic ness I had before or shortened it. I've been sloppy with my 80 MG prozac, as I have gone days without taking it. I'm really trying now to take it, will this help everything and if I stop the abilify will it make me manic?
It sounds bad to some, but id rather be manic than depressed. Normally, I had no problem looking people in the eye, but now, its the hardest thing in the world.
2 mg abilify btw
