I am finally stable, after a year of yo-yo-ing.

Do you hide your inner compassion?

Yes, about the amount I was drinking. Only once though. have a very trusting relationship with my T but didn't want to deal with what I knew he would say as I didn't want to slow down my drinking - hypomania.

What is the worse reaction you have had from a T, about anything?

Probably because we are used to chaos and extremes. You go towards what you know. Also we use whatever we can to try and even out or numb the craziness is our minds.

Three current obsessions?

I'm low on obsessions right now, for once.

Are your family members too loud?

My youngest can be too loud on the piano yes. For the most part my kids are petty quiet though.

Have you ever gotten a speeding ticket?

Yep. Speed trap twice. Now I don't speed because I can't afford the fine.

Have you ever been in a car accident?

Lots of things from before I had any idea I was bipolar......once I had an argument with my sister and slapped her face. I have found it very hard to live with that even 20 years later.

Do you tend to get sick more easily when your mood is changing?

No, my immune system is very strong thankfully. I do eat well. I haven't even had a cold for over 2 years.

When sopping anti-depressants do your emotions return powerfully, both good and bad?

I haven't stopped my AD in many years, since I had to stop to go on an MAOI, so I really don't know. When I made that change I was a complete wreck but I was depressed and my prior AD wasn't working at a dose I could tolerate even before stopping so I just got worse from a bad place.

Do you find you can't cry from you meds?

Last time I cried was at my uncle's funeral. I saw my aunt crying. Other than that I don't cry much.

Do you have any piercings? If so, which?

I have one in my left ear and two in my right ear. Nothing else.

What music are you listening to right now...or soon?

I imagine the next music I'll hear will be Christmas carols at the vet's tomorrow.

Do you have trouble going into stores during the holiday rush?

Yes, I get really agitated, anxious, irritable. This is why I try to shop before the holiday rush, and I buy things online to avoid the stores and crowds.

Were you misdiagnosed before being diagnosed with Bipolar?
