The days of my life with daily recurring headache and frequent migraines, PCOS, and manic depression; dealing with life, family, and utter hopelessness (at times). Looking for courage through support and sharing with others.

04SEP2009: Current Prescriptions & OTC

Sep 04 2009

Effexor XR, 150mg - 1 @ bedtime for depression 

Norco, 10-325 - 1 or 2 pills every 4 to 6 hours as needed for severe migraine.

Yep, narcotic.  Typical migraine meds stopped working for me after my angel was born.  I don't take these everyday and I really try NOT to take them, but when I have a bad one, they keep me out of the hospital most of the...

Last night I got home, removed the cross-bars from the top of my crossover suv because the noise from the wind is just driving me insane and I've asked my husband to do it and I just cannot rememberthe last time he really did a manly chore for me (*yes, he does the dishes and the laundry and gives Bailey baths and anything that he can do within 10 minutes and bitch about it for 10 hours*).&...

I went to marriage counseling for the first time on this morning.  It was awful.  I scheduled the session through our local Catholic diocese.  They apparently use students from localcolleges who report up to actual psychologists and there are no clergy present.  My husband has respect only for the collar, the habit, or a deacon's authority.  He spoke to and about me...

Rediagnosed as bipolar???

Jul 20 2009

Years ago a very good but very self-involved doctor (on several occasions he interupted our 15 minute sessions to schedule his tee times) diagnosed me with manic depression.  I have always beentreated for depression and anxiety, which I'm not sure I ever mentioned to anyone in general.  This doctor put me on and off so many meds that my little body was soooo sick - I even threw up...

Missing in Action

Jul 20 2009

Well, despite my good intentions, I haven't been writing out here like I want to.  We're all human beings, so I will just do the best I can.  I got a job with the state, which is completely AWESOME!  I love the people I work with and they have a strong respect for people in the military reserves, which is something I've been pursuing for awhile as it has been a lifelo...

Why is it so hard for people who "love" us to feel compassion - or just treat us like human beings?

Okay, the other night when I wrote my first diary entry I could not go to sleep... I guess I was excited to get some things off my chest, I'm not sure, but I had an interview later that day(it went perfect & it was my second interview in 2 days - the first was with the Navy Reserves Direct Commission Officer program, something I've dreamed about since childhood).  After I...

Kat5150 gave me the hug that brought me back to MDJunction.

Do we all realize how important it is for us to reach out to others?  especially those going through similar situations?  I know sometimes that I feel like to loneliest girl in the world and that no one will ever understand how much I "REALLY" hurt and what I hide just to be there with them in that moment.  I write about all this in my daily journal just to get it out s...
