 "because my wife, whom I will always love, is Bipolar" (bjones2305)

MDJunction to me

jayna01"My name is Jayna and I wanted to take this opportunity to say how much MDJunction has meant to me. I always felt so alone before I joined in April of 2012. I felt like there wasn't anyone that really cared about me and what I was going through. I felt like there was no one that would truly listen to me in what I was feeling. Nobody was there for me. That is before I found MDJ!

I have found and met such good people on these forums. I never ever knew there were such compassionate people before MDJ. It's also nice to know that I can come here anytime and get support for what I am feeling. I feel like I have met some wonderful life long friends. It is also an outlet for me to try and help other people that are hurting. It gives me a good feeling inside and gives me self confidence in helping other people.

I hope MDJ will be as good for you as it has been for me! Many Blessings and Much love." (jayna01)

Good Morning Niecy and Amanda! I have been up all night to Niecy. But mine is by choice. I have been up all night reading stuff on the net. I had a mini aha moment so I am happy!

That's good to hear! I'm glad you're feeling better. I'm going through med changes, and it's been very hard on me but I'm trying to hang in there. You are very welcome, that's what friends are for. Smile

How many meds did your doctor change? Hopefully as time passes, you will be able to cope easier!

He changed 1 and added another, he switched the Geodon for Saphris and added Klonopin. Also increased the tegretol

Oh so you have three med changes. Med changes can be so hard. I just recently weaned off Paxil and changed to Cymbalta. She started me on 30mg, increased it to 60 and than decreased it again to 30mg. I have been on Geodon for about 5 years. Hopefully your body will adjust to the meds soon.

I'm kind of upset about it, because I felt like the meds I was taking before were helping but he(pdoc) didn't agree with me on that. I can't take cymbalta, had an allergic reaction to it.
