I started back on my supplements last week, and the past couple days I've been quite chill. No depression, no mania, not mixed, not anxious, just chill. Things really suck right now as far as our financial situation goes, but it's not something I can fix, so I'm not going to worry about it. I think with my mix of medication and supplements it's really helping me out. I want to tweak the geodon, so I'm taking less of it in the morning, but other than that it's all good. Also my pain is under control and that was leading to depression.

Here's what I'm taking:
Medications: Lamictal, Tegretol, Saphris, Geodon, Provigil, Klononpin (PRN), Gabapentin, Arthrotec, Baclofen, Nature-Throid

Supplements: Vit C, Vit D, Vit D+K, Calcium, Zinc, 5-HTP, SAMe, Dopa Munca, Taurine, Relora, a-Drenal, Glucosamine, Magnesium, Tumeric, methyfolate, Vit A, and there's a couple more I can't remember.

I take like 30 pills in the AM, but I'd rather do that than have mood swings all the time. I take all my supplements in the AM with my meds, then just take meds in the PM.

This feeling of normalcy is really weird. Haven't felt like this in years, probably 13 years.

I just hope it continues.

I start DBT tomorrow, so hopefully I'll learn even more coping skills, if something does arise.
