"My significant other has Bipolar II, rapid cycling." (TiredJamie)

MDJunction to me

neshama48"Having Crohn's Disease for over 26 years, in the first few years, it lonely and isolating.
Though now my disease is in a near perfect remission, my friends and family are sympathetic to me, but I can not talk to them about this disease. When I stumbled across MD Junction, and met others who had the same disease I was not alone in battling the disease. MD Junction is like a second family, without the judgement or guilt of having Crohn's Disease, but they do give you love and support.

That sounds odd. I do know that I couldn't take Zoloft. It made me very unstable. I was at 100, too. I switched to Wellbutrin and am doing quite well when it comes to depression and am stable, too.

i loved it at first. i had energy, no pains in my back and was just myself. the combo of that the lamictal and seroquil seemed to be doing great. maybe we should add abilify.

You know, it's curious to me that they are now touting Abilify as a aid for depression because it's used for the opposite. I take it to keep from having manic symptoms. Dual properties. But if it works, that's great.

You're fine. Don't worry about it. Not much new here. I have a workshop today related to my job. In fact, I'll have to get off in a little bit to get ready. Other than work, I lead a dull life Laughing

Hello, well I got up early and let the dog out and couldn't go back to sleep. So I started some laundry. My cough is a lot better today so that's good.

What kind of workshop are you going to? oops I see you already answered that question..lol
