I am not myself. I love Easter as I am a Christian but I cannot find my usual joy. Whats wrong with me? I am so easily angered and upset by the smallest and dumbest things and I cannot find myself where I used to be...wanting to be involved in things etc. I don't feel depressed....

I am anxious though. I am dizzy and sick feeling with it and I am not sure what to do. I am lost. What do I do??? Do I call my Dr or just deal with and end up hurting myself like I always do in the end?

My mind feels all cloudy today and I don't know why. Everything seems hazy an dmuddled. Whats wrong with me????

You do kinda sound like yr depressed. Don't hurt yr self ok? I'd rather you come on here and get support. Are you feeling manic? How is yr sleep going? Are you getting enough? Yes I think you should see yr pdoc. What meds are you on? Do you think you might need an increase? These are all questions to ask yr self. We're here for you.

If you feel that you might hurt yourself, please call your doctor. It is all right that you cannot find your usual joy -- you are in a lot of pain, and you are trying to cope with that.

For anxiety, something that helps me is drinking herbal tea. Celestial's sleepytime tea is good -- it doesn't sedate, it's more of a relaxant. Any kind of chamomile tea helps.

Consider little steps for self-care. A shower and body scrub? A foot soak? A DIY face mask? Call a friend to say Happy Easter? Write a random note to someone you haven't been in touch with?

Sending you good wishes,
Allie

I don't feel manic. When I was manic a few months ago I was really energetic and not sleeping and all. I am exhausted lately for like 3 days now. Im so tired and I go to bed early but still. Ive been napping and I still manage to go to bed earlier than usual. I take lamictal, latuda and Neurontin...my dr said I can take more Neurontin for my anxiety as of last week when I called her.

is this depression? its been 2 months since ive been in crisis unit for depression. I don't want to feel like this.

I haven't drank chamomile in a long time but I have some. I wear essential oils to try and calm myself.

That's good that you don't feel manic. Ya you are getting alot of sleep...that's a sure sign of depression, yes. I know you don't want to feel this way hunny. It's horrible. I was depressed for 4 months and I'm slowly coming out of it. The latuda seems to be helping. We are on the same meds! I'm on lamictal, latuda and neurontin. But I'm also on geodon and a little lexapro. I'm glad you called yr Dr. How much latuda are you on?

20 mg daily of latuda
200mg lamictal
200mg in am 200mg in afternoon and 600mg at night of Neurontin

what do I do

[HALLIEBETH87]

I just saw my dr last week but I felt different then I was so motivated and active and cleaning and everything

now I feel blah

[swheaton]

Just don't hurt yourself...is there someone you can be with right now?

[HALLIEBETH87]

my granny is downstairs I think. ive been talking with my friend from high school....she told me I need to call my dr tomorrow so I guess I will.

[swheaton]

I think you need to. Go visit with your granny. My Grammy used to give the best hugs...it's good medicine.

[HALLIEBETH87]

no im pet sitting for somebody and I came back to their house. I had to let the dog out so that's where I am now. its so beautiful outside all I wanna do is isolate and cut.

[HALLIEBETH87]

and my granny doesn't hug me. shes different. I love her but....we don't 'talk'

[HALLIEBETH87]

last night got bad and this morning isn't better. I have bad urges

[HALLIEBETH87]

My dr called me today. She called me and checked on me. She wants meme to go back on Topomax that I quit taking over a week ago-she said I could. She thinks that it was helping my mood....so here I go I guess. :/ Dopemax

[Curiosity77]

That's good that you talked to your doctor. I hope restarting the med helps . Keep us posted on how you are doing.
