Alo! I came across this site while looking for other bipolar blogs. I'm having a low day and am struggling to not breakdown. I was wondering if anyone else on here blogs and if they think it's a good idea really. I'm pretty open with my illness and myself in general and it would be great to read other peoples struggles and triumphs. I'm on my 3rd medication and so far I feel nothing (it's lamictal and I'm just starting with the 25mg so I have awhile to go). I was just wondering what other people do to try and stop an attack (I also have been diagnosed with Severe Anxiety and Panic Disorder). I hate the idea of having to rely on pills but am slowly coming to terms with the fact that this is not something I can control, that it is biological, it's just super hard.
My blog's name is The Discovery of Stuff and Things. I dunno, writing about it makes it feel more real and serves as a release. So does anyone else on here blog?
I have written a few blogs on myspace about everything. Well, not EVERYTHING but I'm open about it too because I don't think we should be ashamed of it. It's not like we asked for this. Unfortunately, society in general is not educated on the subject and most people have NO CLUE what we go through. I actually got a lot of good feedback from them. I basically did it because letting it all out helps me.. I'd rather type than write.. and it lets other people know they aren't alone. I have BP I and social anxiety. I guess A.D.D. too. I'm also taking Lamictal.. along with Paxil, Klonopin and Adderall. I came to accept the fact that I'm going to have to take some type of pill(s) the rest of my life but that's just something I have to deal with. I'm sorry you're having a bad day but just keep writing.. it really does help!
