In 11 months I'm running a grand total of $17,000 spending debt with the last major purchase being $1700 for a twin mattress (tax included!). A couple of hours before the mattress buy I was in the pdoc's office requesting a med increase because I'm off the hook manic and proceeded to back up my claim with my apparent symptoms. Thankfully, she agreed this time because when I asked for a med increase several months before she said she didn't think I needed it because she felt I was doing fine even though I was in the midst of a major house build and a move. THAT was the trigger for me!
