Well I’m bipolar 1 and I have anxiety ptsd insomnia and fibromyalgia. I went to one psychiatrist and he said I was bipolar coming from the things my ex said about me bc he went with me. And then he just medicated me for it. Some of the things I took at first given to me did not help me at all! Made me worse. But over the years I went to two more different psychiatrists and I just kept the diagnosis with me. I believe I never really had someone really evaluate me right. I also was in a emotionally abusive relationship back then. And he triggers my moods to this day so. I try to keep in contact with him as little as possible. I took a tiny piece of seroquel. That stuff is very potent for me. It only takes a little bit. But I don’t like to take it sometimes because I am grouchy in the morning and it’s hard to wake up. I take medicine everyday. Lithium and gabapentin for nerve pain. It helps work with the lithium as well. And then lorezepam for anxiety. As needed I try not to take those as much. Only as needed.
