I finally met with my pdoc and he started me on epival and i was already taking effexor.........God I hope this works!! My effexor was no longer working and I was rapid cycling and so exhausted of the ups and downs!! Recently started cutting, in some ways to try to take the pain away in another to punish myself I guess!! Never thought I would ever do something like that!! My poor husband!! I kick him out I want him back, I scream and yell at him, he'll say something and I will get so upset and just cry and cry!!! Something has to make this better!!

I was experimenting with the meds for a full year before my doc found the right combo for me. Don't give up hope. It might help to have your husband educated about bipolar so he can be more understanding as you go through these awful moods. Try NAMI (National Alliance of the Mentally Ill) & DBSA (Depression & Bipolar Support Alliance). They both have excellent resources to learn about the disorder & have support groups as well. There is hope for you! I suffered for 30 years before I got the proper diagnosis & meds.

this may sound dumb but i read it on a site for cutting. instead of cutting just put an ice cube on the area u normally cut and hold it down. it's safer and feels like the same. i'm only 14 but i can relate to how ur feeling.
