MDJunction to me

"I have been struggling with Fibromyalgia, Bipolar, Anxiety, Post traumatic Syndrome for quite some time and pretty much going it alone. I stumbled across MDJunction by accident. I stayed in the shadows and just watched for four days and then I joined, feeling relieved and excited to have found a safe place with alot of folks that I could relate to . It's proove to be medically and emotionally
helpful to me and now I can't go a day without coming in at least 4 or five times a day! I Love my family here.

I hate mixed mania
Apr 30 2008

Days have gone by and I finally have a name for what I've been feeling.  It's not like regulsr mania where you energetic inspired and feel great.  It's like your energetic butanxious , irritable and deppressed at the same time.  My whole body feels stressed,tight and tense. I don't even realize sometimes just how tightly I'm holding my shoulders and neck until I try to relax them.

I would almost rather be depressed because at least then I am relaxed and not so wound up inside.  I am still taking my meds but I guess I should really get to seeing a psych again now that I have insurance.  I hate that I just can't fix things myself , but I guess I have been doing okay enough to get by on my own.  I really don't know what to do if this doesnt fade away soon cause it sucksing and is very exhausting!!

Hi, Just wanted to say, i feel for you..I was going thru the same thing, not knowing what it was. Definitely make yourself an appointment to that psych if you have insurance!It sucks not being able to fix things on our own. If we have someone to help us feel just a LITTLE bit better, to learn a new coping skill to handle those difficult situations that come our way..It sure makes life just a tiny bit easier to handle!Im going thru a really bad manic phase right now, so I no what you mean about needing it to fade away. I don't know if I want it to fade?I'm afraid of that drop!

Take care of yourself!I hope things get better for you soon
