There is some significant question as to whether I have Bipolar disorder or something else. I will start with someone unknown to me to diagnose me and go from there. I have ordered a workbook on the suspected diagnosis and booked an appointment with someone who specializes in it. Labels don’t matter. Being treated properly does.

My brother is hearing voices in a big way. He’ll need to go inpatient. Easier said than down. I am working on it. Hopefully today.

I’ve lost 25 pounds since January 3rd. Ecstatic about that. I’m going to continue on.

Hugs to all.
You sure have a lot to deal with. I'm glad one thing went right. Well, maybe two--here's hoping. Excuse my interference, but please be careful.

My sleep got better the night after I ordered the weighted blanket, and stayed that way. I don't really think that had anything to do with it though, unless it was that I got determined to try everything and not give up and the squirrel-in-a-cage part of my brain decided to behave better . It's more likely that the medication is starting to benefit me. Or maybe both.
