Yes, I agree that it appears my meds are not working. I'm becoming more insecure, feeling more worthless and clingy, keeping taking more anti-anxiety meds than I should, wanting more and more structure in my day (To the extent where it IS NOT possible)

Beginning to stress, as it's been 3 hours since I phoned and still no answer or reply. And I hate coming across as impatient or a drain.
I didn't tell her I had contemplated ODing in the last few days, because those thoughts are really just fleeting. I just told her I really didn't think my meds were helping, that i wasn't coping and I wish I could take a handful of sleeping tabs and sleep this out. That I'd started having nightmares and had just run away from work cos I could not cope Last edited by sugahorse1; May 13, 2010 at 09:42 AM. Reason: Forgetfulness and only writing half a post :-( |

It's 16:50 here!!! So I'm 7 hours ahead. now it looks like I'll have to wait until the morning. I did send her an e-mail, but she doesn't really use e-mail, asking to set up an appointment in person asap.

I take the following meds:
9AM Lithium 600mg (Bipolar I) Adderall XR 50mg (ADHD) Geodon 60mg (Bipolar I) Lexapro 30mg (Anxiety & OCD) Intuniv 4mg (ADHD) 3PM Adderall XR 20mg (ADHD) 6PM Geodon 60mg (Bipolar I) 9PM Lithium 600mg (Bipolar I) Seroquel 100mg (Insomnia) PRN Klonopin 1mg Q6 (Anxiety & Mild Agitation) Geodon 60mg Q6 (Agitation & Mania) My diagnoses are Bipolar I, Aspergers, ADHD, OCD, and Nonverbal Learning Disorder The lithium has helped alot for me for both mania and depression and with suicidal ideation. The geodon helps with mania and agitation and helps me regain control when I take it PRN. I think the lexapro is making things worse so I'm being tapered off of it. The klonopin helps me with the anxiety that I experience. My ADHD medications help with ADHD but I think I need a higher dose of adderall in the afternoon. |

I've only tried Epilim (sodium valporate) as a mood stabiliser, so I guess Lamictin is the next for me to try. I did not get on well with the Lexapro

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
