MDJunction to me

jaguarandcubs"MDJ is an integral part of my everyday life. Since joining in 2010, I have met so many amazing people. It is truly incredible to be able to share good times and not so good times with others who face the same health challenges. And MDJ has support groups for every condition I have. I don't know of anywhere else that can offer that. I love that I can learn from others as well as offer my own experiences for others to learn from." (jaguarandcubs)

If you're younger than your sister, you can always torment her like I do my siblings by telling her you'll always be younger. My brother and sister have no comeback for it!

uppitywoman,

I love it! My sister is 7 years older than me, so you're right. I could actually use that line and get away with it. Smile

I know, maMoNa, but I couldn't do it last semester due to auditory hallucinations and racing thoughts. I wish I had been manic throughout the semester (actually, I was given my psychosis, but I mean minus the hallucinations) because it would have made things so much easier. I wouldn't have had problems focusing in class or completing my assignments. I just reached the point where I didn't care. I need to get my rapid cycling under control before I can think about school. So far, the Clonazepam seems to help. If all continues to go well, I plan to return to school in the fall.

My sister's friend thought lol meant love ya lots, so she always put it in her texts at weird times. My sis got a text from her that said her husband left her and she was a crying mess lol. My sis wrote back and said, "Why are you lol ing when he just left you?!?!" She wrote back that she thougt is meant love ya lots! My sis told her what it really meant and she just had to laugh (lol) despite her problems.

Here is another one for you guys... It will drive you crazy until you find out what it means... LMDOTWPO.....

Peeps, I have one for what my 'diagnosis' is. When people ask me what's wrong with me and I just don't want to deal, I tell them I am AFN, that it's really hard to pronounce, but not really that rare.

AFN = A Fucking Nut Smile

They call me Jrock :)

Bipolar 1

Trileptal 1200 mg
Klonopin .5 mg up to 4 times per day
