Home office is almost done. One more coat of paint and putting the doorknobs on. I'm just wowed by all the windows. It's really cool. Glad to have it done, as it was a lot of work!
Thanks for this!

Took increased dose of Seroquel at bedtime per my pdoc. Woke up at 7am feeling good, level. It's 2pm now, and I still feel stable. This is really good, I hope it continues!
Thanks for this!

I'm a little down, but I can deal with that so long as I'm stable. It's my weekly blues, and I'll take that over the deep, shadowy pit of despair any day...

Started on a new project, but because of my laziness today, I didn't get as far as I wanted too. I did the sanding today, hopefully I can paint tomorrow!
Thanks for this!

It's bedtime and I'm still feeling level. This is very encouraging! The seroquel seems to be helping. I don't want to jinx it, but I hope this continues.

Ended up in the ER again from itching and couldn't swallow. They didn't want to give me prednisone the first trip because of mania concerns. This time they decided to risk it and I hope it helps. My hands are swollen to twice their usual size and this itching is unlike anything I've experienced. I look like a monster and feel worse than I look.

This weekend was incredible. Indescribable really. I feel like my psychological issues are fading away, because i just don't care any more, and i don't blame myself for things outside of my control anymore. My life is super edgy, living like an anarchist. Everything is exciting and intense, but i don't think i'm manic. I think i'm just actually getting over things, finally. I'm doing some dangerous stuff, but it's been really fun, and nothing bad has happened. This is the person i was before i got sick, just daring and fearless, unstoppable. I did an mdma therapy session on Friday, and it was part of this giant shift, except i would never have gotten to a space to even do that if things weren't already shifting for me. I feel like this is going to be a really great summer

curiosity, that sounds wonderful. I'm very excited for you.

My itching is going down. I'm glad they gave me the prednisone despite mania risk. I'm not taking any medicine until this rash goes away. I need to know what is causing this. I hope I don't crash on this med break.

Elsa that has got to be so horrible. Back when I was a freshman I got very very sick, saw the on campus doc and he gave me PCN. I blew up with huge welts everywhere even the bottom of my feet. Called the parents in agony, mom came and got me took me straight to out doc who said I was allergic to PCN...but that's OK there are other antibiotics and it not like I need it to stay stable in everyday life. It must be terrible waiting this out and wondering which med or cocktail you can't take and what you can that will work for the BP.

Nammu, I had hives on the bottom of my feet too. The palms of my hands, and feet itched the worst. And they hurt like hell. My face and lips swelled. My GI track was affected and I could hardly swallow. Everything inside me felt closed up and itchy inside too. My mouth itched so bad. I was vomiting, it was agony. Good news is I think the prednisone is working. I'm so sorry you went through this, it's no fun at all.

I decided that I am going on vacation. My daughter is coming too. We are visiting freinds and family in another state. I do not have much money for this trip. We are staying with a freind, using his car, and even traveling by Greyhound bus. The tickets are only $240 a piece, but the two day trip will be a PITA. Also my daughter is afraid of strangers.

Working tomorrow, feeling a bit obsessive on the computer....hope I can sleep tonight.
Hubby asked me if I wanted to go get a beer at Whole foods and I told him no.
So that is a good sign.

I can't believe you're still dealing with this. Omg! I'm so sorry. I hope the itching goes away soon.

I am gonna treat myself to a sleepless night! And drink whisky, the best I've ever tasted.

I'm not gonna take my antipsychotic. I will take my mood stabiliser and supplements.

1200 mg acetylcysteine, 100 mg 5-HTP, 1600 mcg mB12 and methylfolate.

I'll add vitamin E on Wednesday. Maybe instead of the 5-HTP.
