Bipolar depression has been eating away at me for a long time. Today is day 5 on Rexulti and I finally woke up happy, not manic, but just happy with my life, my things. I lit some incense and meditated to signal a change. Today I got so much done. I did a lot of shopping and played with my dog. I played Pokemon. Things just feel lighter than the horrible anxiety and depression that plagued me. Today is a new day, a fresh start. I have a new perspective on life. I just thank God he got me on the right meds. And I thank myself for sticking in there, not giving up and giving into suicide.

I like Rexulti too. It lifted my depression in four days. It is pricey, however.
At 2.0 I went incredibly anxious. I had never had that kind of anxiety before. I went down to 1.5 and am good.

What a great post to read. I'm glad the new meds worked for you.
