To make my first post! hehe

Hello guys n gals! So I’ve been lurking for a little while now and felt it was time to make sn/profile and introduce myself.

Some stuff you’ll know about me from my profile (but posting for those of you who won’t bother to read my profile haha)

- I’m 24, female, from CA
- Diagnosed with Bipolar I and ADHD in 2009.
- I’ve been on and off meds since then, but since late January I now take 5mg saphris nightly, 15mg adderall 2x daily, and .50 klonopin as needed. (As far as I can tell, I’m feeling MUCH better on this drug regimen than I was not being on any medication at all)

Other things about me:

- I’m currently unemployed (sucks let me tell ya lol)
- I’m a fulltime student at a local community college (that takes up most of my time)
- I have a boyfriend who’ve I’ve been happily involved with for over 2 years (he takes up the rest of my time haha)
- I’m addicted to the internet and diet coke
- I’m here to make new friends and network with people who share my diagnosis. Hopefully I can gain some insight and find answers to questions I have about my illness as they come up while giving back to my BP community with my insights/advice/shoulder to learn on as well

Thanks for the warm welcomes I used to belong to random message boards back before myspace and facebook got popular... and for some reason it's taken me this long to finally sign up for a bipolar specific forum, but I'm glad I did I'm feeling great right now, but I know if I ever, (or I should say WHEN I) hit my low points it'll be nice to have someone to go where people can relate to how I'm feeling and get some support.
