"Boyfriend with Bipolar disorder" (cheynnesophia)

MDJunction to me

ThereseML"When I first came to MDJ, I was in need of peer support in dealing with issues of my childhood abuse. I was moving away from the painful issues and trying to find an uplifting group of people to help me transition to a thriver in my life. I found that here. I also found a group of peers with Fibromyalgia and found the same uplifting experience there. My computer crashed and it was a while before I found my way back, this time with issues related to Parkinson's Disease. I had tried a few other support sites before reminding myself of MDJ. On those, I never got a reply. I finally found my way back here and again found very supportive, caring and inspiring people who made me feel like I was 'back home'. Indeed I am." (ThereseML)

Okay, now who has stolen my words? I just cannot find them anywhere!!! Sad

Would readers here expect Seroquel, Lamictal and Lyrica to be the culprits?

JennyWren

Seroquel XR, 300mgs
Then 50mgs later on in the evening
to encourage sleep.
250mgs of Lamictal in the morning. Mood Stabilizer
Lithium 250mg at night and 250mgs in the AM.


Three other meds for psychical problems

Well, I don't think I have them, jennywren, since there aren't any extra words flying around in my head today! Smile

Seriously though, I lose words, too. I'm not on meds for bp right now. My pdoc says that stress and depression as well as meds can cause memory issues.

BP I, 40, Married.
depakote and lorazapem for BP I.
fludrodcortisone and belladonna for autonomic dysreflexia; and protonix, singulair, allegra, rhinocort, and optivar for other conditions.
Also have subclinical hypothyroidism.

I lose words but my problem is I find words to replace the lost ones with but they are not really words! They are just groups of voweles and letters I make up that sound like another word! I will keep an eye out for your words! LOL
