I've had my bipolar DX for 13 years. The PTSD was finally acknowledged by my pdoc, but had been made last December and earlier this year by my tdoc. The meds suck. I don't stop taking them ever, but often wonder how I'd be without. I cannot sleep now, probably the caffeine. I can't relax at all, but haven't much in a couple weeks anyway. SI thoughts are fairly frequently today, and I'm doing my best to ignore them.
Having a "project" to focus on does help, doesn't it? I'll have to pretend to give a care and maybe I'll make it. Fake it til you make it.
