      • I am extremely mentally & physically exhausted & totally drained. Dr B is great, 5 weeks samples vraylar. I also asked (&He did) switch from xanax to klonipin because sometimes the efficacy wears off. He asked if I wanted inpatient, I said I can’t. Too much responsibility. I see him again 2.5-3 weeks, sooner prn/crisis intervention, ,,, I will see

      • Bloody, Hell! That sounds like my old regime, when I was medicated to the gills of Nemo. Now I’m jusr 450mg Lithium XR twice daily, 200mg Lamitcal daily, 20mg XR Methylph, ).5 mg Xanax four times daily, and 100mg Pristiq daily.
        Then there is the melatonin or if I am desperate, Temazepam…
        I’m still medicated to the gills. FUCK. And struggling more often than not.
        Viva Big Pharma, right? ❤

      • Duude, stress is killing me and I am NOT happy with that. WE are tougher than this, Diane. Me, you, Sass- we are badasses. We’ve got to keep fighting.
        Or drinking. I am good with drinking.
        Because at least insurance doesn’t have to take a week to approve that. ❤

  1. Stop the cheer it just makes things worse. Just stay quiet and people will leave you alone. Their expectations will leave you be. Bipolar on Fire always recommends ’emotional ICU’. If you can, take a break from people give yourself some time to occupy the emotional ICU, it does help. I work all day, so keeping away from people is impossible. I plug my earphones in and ignore everyone. They soon get the message and I don’t have to interact with anyway. It doesn’t take the pain away. It just lessens the load a bit. I’ll be thinking of you. Stay warm in the ICU ❤
