Fyi

if you go visit the geodon website. they have a bunch of stuff to help with the managing of bi-polar. Like guidelines to making a crisis plan, mood trackers. There is an article about recognizing episodes if you haven't mastered that yet. Just all kinds of cool stuff.

I not only printed it out to use, but saved in on a jump-drive to share or make more copies of.

But I just thought I would share some management tools. Also, if you can find a copy of Bi-polar 101: A Practical Guide to Identifying Triggers, Managing Medications, Coping with Symptoms, and More by Ruth C. White and John D. Preston. I've read it once and am going back and working through it. Haven't had anyone look that the stuff I have done from it, so I don't know if it's really going to help the doctors/therapist, but we will see.

I need to put into place an emergency guardian ship for my son so that he won't go to his daddy if something should ever happen that I need up in the hospital (for anything, not just mental illness). Studying to be a paralegal, you would think I would learn how to do that somewhere down the road.

Being crazy takes lots of work. I need to look into another hobby!
