I think that's great! Whatever works. Right? Can you tell me about your experience with the Trileptal? I was put on it in mid-February. I don't feel suicidal any more, but I don't feel that great either. I feel like, well, like it's really hard to tell what better might even smell, taste, look like because my mania was so severe and my depression so long and deep. I am just this weekend going to try driving again, and, also just this weekend, have been able to do housework for more than thirty minutes a day. Not sure what to attribute anything to any more.

You are not your illness. You have an individual story to tell. A name, a history, a personality. Staying yourself is part of the battle.
