No, I did briefly in my 20s but the smell really got to me.

Do you drink even though you are on meds?

Yes occasionally. It takes a lot to sedate me apparently even though I'm on six different meds that supposively cause sedation. Two , or three beers once a month.

Do you wake up wide awake in the morning, or is caffeine necessary?

Moose. Just kidding! Bunny rabbit is my favorite.

When was your last episode, manic or depressed?

Bad mania about 2 months ago. Lasted about 6 weeks.

Does your self-esteem skyrocket when hypo/manic?

Yes. And when depressed, self-esteem plunges.

Do you have an understanding partner?

Not at all, if you're meaning romantic. But in general, now that I think about it, that would be a no as well..

Do you have any pets? Do they help comfort you?

2 elderly cats. One turns 21 in 4 days.

Have you ever considered a service animal?

Stability means to me being able to go back to school with out symptoms causing me.to drop out (again), and getting a job, and basically little to no symptoms for a long period of time.

What helps you to relieve anxiety?

Keeping busy, keeping my mind active so I don't have to worry about the anxiety. Constantly standing in a place and worrying makes it worse for me, so if I am out somewhere I look at my phone and read something to relieve the anxiety.

What time do you take your meds?

Sometimes deep breathing, hot baths, talking with someone I love, distraction or Ativan. Other times, nothing helps.

If you could get rid of your BP by giving it to somebody else, would you? If so, who?

That would be "Unquiet Mind" she is a bit manic and all over the place but its a good entertaining read.

What would you classify yourself more of these days, more manic or more depressed?

I'm already married Pirilin, so I must decline.

Do you have a good support system in place?

In the old fart recliner I swore I would never sit on, yes.
The car is fine. Electric.
The computer chair is the one killing me. I need to put something in place.

How many doctors?.

Probably one at a time. I'm not in good shape and threesomes require flexibility.

Have you ever shared your meds with someone?
