Hey everyone,

Well things are going well for me finally! My son is doing well thank god! He's going to start going back to college in the winter.

I'm finally driving! Got my license about 2 weeks ago. It's been 19 yrs since I had it. I didn't think I'd pass the test but I did. Yay! I've been out driving all over town lol. It's awesome! My son and I have been all over. I like my car it's a 2003 toyota rav 4. One of my sisters bought me brand new tires for it! It's in pretty good shape.

My goals are to get my pain under control. Meet new friends and lose some weight. I'm gonna see about going to a pain clinic for my back. I just cant walk more than like 2 blocks without a significant amount of pain. It sucks. So hope to find some help with that.

I need more friends. I'm pretty progressive thinking and would like to find other progressives. So...

I had lost 40 lbs but I've gained back 20 of it when my son was struggling I was taking more Zyprexa and eating more, I've lost like 7 of it but to get to goal I have a ways to go. I gained from Seroquel and then Zyprexa. Not being able to be that mobile doesn't help.

As far as my bp goes, I fall into depression here and there but the manias are pretty much gone with my meds. But I'm on invega 3 mgs and Zyprexa 5 mgs. I really miss hypos. Just do.

So that's how I'm doing. Hugs to anyone struggling right now. There was a time I never thought things would get better. I understand, I really do. Xx
