Going through something weird

Well I changed my pdoc last month and I really like him so far. He decided though that my meds needed to be changed as I had been on the last for a year with little to no effect. So he kept me on depakote for mood balance but changed my antidepressant to wellbutrin and my anti-anxiety to klonopin. I was in a manic State when I went to see him. Now though my aggression level is way high. I mean I normally have a little accompanying my manic phases but this is getting where I want to hit something. It's got me scared I called my pdoc and he said it could be the adjustment from the meds and my odd schedule.

Wellbutrin did a similar thing to me.

I'm glad to hear that you like your pdoc, all be it a new relationship, a good start is a good start.

I've also had situations in the past where I've changed to a new pdoc who has wanted to change my meds.

I've have heard of the AD/AP/MS that you are on, even though I have not been on them personally, myself.

Yeah that "angry" mania you describe sucks ... I can't stand it ... when I've had that in the past, I've literally wanted to punch people in the face I've felt that much rage - it's a pretty nasty feeling (just clarifying, no I've never punched a soul in my life )

What strategies (apart from your pdoc pointing out that it could be the med change), has your pdoc suggested for you as possible things you can use / time out - when you have reached the point of no return?

Because I know when I've felt like that in the past it's pretty damn difficult to just "stop" the thought ... it doesn't work that way.

But if you knew what you could do instead - dunno....stressball?

That's the problem I work a 12 hour graveyard schedule so he thinks that's part of it and on my days off I clean the house my wife didn't and watch kids.

You've got a lot that you're juggling there mjrwraith, I hope you're able to find some comfort amidst the turmoil.

So do I cause I can feel this bubbling beneath the surface and if I don't do something it's going to blow.

Wellbutrin did the same to me.. I wasn't on it for long at all for the same reasons
