Well, I'm definitely still suffering from mental illness, but this past at ip, they discovered I have a malfunctioning thyroid, which has been exacerbating my mood swings. In other words, it has been causing me to rapid cycle at the speed of car wheel racing down a track. On medication for that now too. Hopefully, I will stay out of IP for more than a month or two at a time now!
I've been intentionally going to the same ip place for awhile now, and it looks like this has paid off, as they have been tracking my thyroid levels every time I've been there. I've finally experienced a middle for the first time in 8 months! __________________ One Step Into Nihilism, One Step Into Inner Peace My Personal Blog Mental Queries (Personal Non-Journal Type Blog.

Took em long enough! That was one of the first things that was ruled out at the first hospital. It's great you are now on meds for it.

Yeah, I have had bipolar symptoms for a while, but lately I was at that hospital at least every other month. They always tested my thyroid. They said the findings were mildly off, but I guess this time they were REALLY abnormal.
