It's at 3pm 13 May. That's an entire 2 months wait. I haven't been to a pdoc appointment in many years. I am nervous but looking forward to see what my DX will be (I just know it's BP1 or BP2). What meds I'll be put on as well. If it turns out I don't have BP1 or 2. Well, I'll be embarrassed that I've been posting in this thread the entire time. Although I have been told I have mood swings. I had almost a month of little sleep, irritation, hyperness, money spending and impulsive behaviour, eating very little. The thoughts, my god....I've been wanting to do drugs and drink. The constant songs in my head and the random words and ideas. Right now I feel intense with my feelings. I slept for over 9 hours last night, was just wanting to cry...Just anger, sadness but now I have the happiness back today but still these intense feelings. I have been drinking which has landed me into trouble as it made me more hyper. Before that I spent most of my time in bed, being lazy and letting my room rot. Ha...Well. Enough of my rambling. This is such a big relief that I finally got the appointment.

I'm so glad that you made an appointment. It will be good for you to know what is going on and if you choose, get medication to help. I know that is a long time to wait but time will pass soon.

Don't feel bad, I'm in the same situation as you. They suspect bipolar so I've been on here a lot to. It's crazy because I can relate to everyone. I had my appointment today but they are still not sure so they put me on an antidepressant to see if it will help me or make me worse, I guess that's their way of finding out for sure.

Don't feel bad about posting on here if you find that you really don't have bipolar.
I don't know if I have it or not. I get different opinions from different doctors. The one I have now thinks I just have severe GAD with psychosis when I get overly stressed/anxious. But, I figure what the he**, I'm on pretty much the same medications as everyone else anyway, and seem to have similar experiences, so I guess it doesn't matter. |

Are they helping you at all? Or did they add a mood stabilizer?

(((roses))) I really think you need to try and get this appointment gets bought forward.
And see if you can get onto the meds that were suggested to you at the initial screening. Or at bare minimum - can you not see your family doctor? I just don't want you running around for too long with no medical supervision. I'm not going to lie to you. You're not in a good place at the moment. |

Haha roses you are awesome.
Now. Just listen here. You think YOU were spamming the Bipolar Support Chat with Lyrics? Oh please. I was a co host. EVEN I WAS SINGING THE SPICE GIRLS. What. I don't even LIKE the spice girls. And who exactly said: "Bugger. Why did Beckham have to spoil the dream by marrying Victoria." Really roses. I was manic. Your mood was elevated. We were BOTH inappropriate. Learn to forgive yourself. Moral of the story roses? We should both practice self constraint in a hosted bipolar support chat. Nobody comes to chat with really strange lyrics only you and I sing. It's not right. Oh. Yes. I was even singing BRITNAY SPEARS. WHAT! I don't even LIKE her hahahaha. But I sang: "Hit me baby one more time!" during the hosted chat. Eeew. Yuck. Hahahha. Right let me quickly hop out of this very embarrassing response - because honestly roses the only message I am trying to give you right now is Please don't beat yourself up about what happened in the Bipolar Support Chat last week. Honestly. I did the same thing. All I can do is learn from my mistake. And promise to never sing Britnay Spears in a hosted chat ever again  I love you roses. |

lol! Britney Spears and the spice girls. What wonderful choices
And on the serious side. Blackroses, I think you shouldn`t stop posting here if you are told that you don`t have BP. It is great to have you here. Your posts are really good I think, and you write about things that so many of us have/are going through. It can be hard to put these issues in words, and it helps when someone can verbalize it, like you do.I find it really hard to put my own issues into words. For me, it is hard to express the really bad stuff. |

Hahaha roses. Okay.
*slaps roses with a soft tissue <-runs away from the funniest thread ever [only said with the intent that you may please forgive yourself; we are both human roses; we make mistakes; we pick up the pieces; dust ourselves off; improve our behaviour if we need to and move on *mental note to self - Roses and Hooli shall never speak of Britany again] |

Keep coming no matter what. Diagnosis is not an exact science and if you get and give help to the community thats all its about
And we are all human...its true. And we happen to be humans with some mental illness going on....so its omly natural that sometimes we may get a little crazy on here Been there done that lol

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