Bipolar Type II Support Group

Hi, I have just been released from the hospital where i have had some meds changed due to the others not working so well. I know I was released to soon and it was my fault they wanted to keep me longer. I have had a lot of changes in my life which has not helped, I have moved from Mass to TX and hate it! My husband is getting deployed shortly and while in the emergency room of the hospital we got a call my step son totaled our truck. There has been many other things but that is just the most recent. I was happy to find this forum and hope to find someone to chat with.

Welcome to the group! Sorry you've been going through so much stress. I hope the med changes help!

Welcome to the group!

welcome... sorry you have a lot going on

Hi, welcome to our group. I hope the medications you got work out for you. I'm sorry you were hospitalized. Changes in your life sound like a big trigger, I hope the medications take care of this so you can adjust to the changes. I hope things start looking up for you. You will find a lot of support here and nice people. I'm sure many to chat with too. I'm happy you joined this group because it sounds like you need the support. I look forward to seeing you around.

Welcome! I think you will really enjoy this site!

Hi, honey! Welcome! (Not gonna call ya "crazy"!)

So sorry that so much has happened in such a short time; the added stress may make it a bit tougher to tell if the meds are working or if the stress is skewing the results a little. Give it time; you may indeed have gone home too early, but if you need to go back, go back! I know you don't want to waste a moment with your husband, but he can spend time with you there; you did get to have visitors, right? My now-husband came every day when I was hospitalized, e few years ago, and my med changes worked great! I was so glad I went, sometimes I want to go back! (But I don't want get sick enough to back, lol!)

I'm very glad you found us; we're here anytime for chats, hugs, support and advice. Sometimes we cry, sometimes we laugh. It all helps!

Blessings, Jeni

It seems like everything is landing on you at once but you can probably better deal with it from home rather than the hospital, just keep in close touch with your doctors so that they know how you're doing and can monitor your meds closely. I wish i could help more but we are all here to talk to you when you're feeling down, or up for that matter, it's nice to hear from people who are doing well sometimes too. Just try to take things slowly and not overburden your mind with details right now and remember to stay in touch with your docs.

Welcome. I am sorry to hear about your bad news. I do hope the meds kick in, but like Jeni said, please go back to the hospital if you need to. Remember it is only temporary and you are under loads of stress. Keep talking to us!
