I printed out out sheets on bipolar, anxiety disorders, and schizoaffective disorder (not that I necessarily think I have schizoaffective, but I was diagnosed as that from two different pdocs).

Getting ready to have the talk with my parents once they get back from the store.

Attempting to get them to understand me a little bit better.

I don't think it's going to work, but I'm going to try.

Help me!!! I'm so scared. It's really hard for me to talk about this **** with my parents.

Went to the art and music festival I said I was going to, had a lot.of fun, bought quite a few things, and drank way too much, I may have been a little hypo, idk, but was elated.thats four sure, seen some good bands, just in general had fun. I even bought a Pusheen the Cat plush toy! She's eating a cookie. Other than that laying in bed getting rid of my drunken buzz, I think, and trying g to make myself tired enough to fall asleep.

I feel totally loss. I was just diagnosed with bipolar and ADHD, and now that I have read up on it. This has been with me, since I was young. Now it feels like my life has been turned upside down.

Bipolar Check in thread #13

Finally, finally, FINALLY banged out a major procrastacular process bottleneck by building a massive lumber trestle to support a thick HDPE surface that suddenly enables my supernatural Japanese MIL to address a growing queue of work contracts that have accumulated following a relocation. It sounds shady because it is. This all leaves me at a much more manageable Condition Bert.

Well, this sucks.

I've been feeling like complete **** for the past 1 and a half weeks. I've become so desperate that I want to purposely induce mania via Adderall XR or an increased dose of Lexapro. Seriously, anything to get rid of this godawful feeling.

Apparently my pdoc is allowed to revoke a prescription from the pharmacy! I just checked online, and sure enough, I need to "call for a refill" because there are 0 refills available! My pdoc is no fun (and too mentally sharp).

I was having a good day until my boss started blowing up my phone. Now my anxiety is through the roof, and I can't quit obsessing. Feeling physically ill as a result.

Hi blue!

If you were looking for an Adderal refill, stimulants have zero refills by law.
Maybe you were looking for Lexapro?

Maybe either will help with your depression?
Hope you feel better soon!

My next pdoc appointment is tomorrow. It got changed from Friday to Tuesday, as he was out of the office on Friday (Took labor day weekend off.)

He said he sent a refill for my Adderall (i.e., new Rx, I guess, based on what you're saying) right before he found out it made me manic. However, I never went to pick it up. Then when I go to check it today, it's gone. Says the date it was prescribed, and next to it, it says 0 refills.

My lexapro 10mg used to have 1 refill, but that's gone too. "0 refills" And I know I never picked that up.

I think he cancelled my prescriptions. Bummer

Today was good. We went out to a local butterfly house but most of the butterflies are gone. We did see a chipmunk, though, so hopefully I'll have some new pics to post on my Flickr site.

My husband has finished rebuilding one drive and the other will be done tomorrow. Thank goodness for that! Once I have those back I can process my pictures.

We had a good time with daughter's boyfriend's family last night. However, my daughter was really ill today so we kept an eye on her as well. She's doing better now. We had burgers again tonight. They were great.

I'm sort of ok. Then I'm down. Rinse. Repeat.

I've been working really hard on my personal wellness with healthy eating and exercise, though I slipped a little this weekend. I want to say that I dont feel totally hopeless, but sometimes(often) I do. All I can do is keep my head down.

My home life has gone absolutely bananas. I'm trying to take care of the team. We are all stretched so thin.I wish someone had a little to give and could share it with me.

I think I'm ok. This is my last day of the 3 day weekend and it hasn't been a complete waste of time. Sunday I cooked and I cleaned, yesterday I went out to brunch with a friend. I also did a lot of binge watching, which I know is a bad idea, but today I'm determined to do something productive instead.

I'm a little annoyed that, because I was up so late watching Homeland, I slept really late today and my schedule is out of whack.

I had the talk with my mom yesterday. I printed out sheets about bipolar disorder and anxiety disorders for her to read.

She still doesn't believe in anxiety disorders! I was so mad. The difference between normal anxiety and having a disorder is that when you have an anxiety disorder it's EXTREME.

So, my mom doesn't believe in anxiety disorders and is still going to be telling me to deal with it.

Because, you know, normal people have anxiety attacks, sometimes for no reason, where their heart pounds, they shake, and then their throats close up and they feel like they can't swallow. Honestly!

Was sick all days yesterday (drank too much sunday night), missed both of my doses of meds, and the Geodon started giving me really bad withdrawal effects, on top of being sick. Lesson learned, don't drink while on my meds...
