I feel like my attention span is zippidy do da, all I want to do is look at face book or have a nap, I'm stressed like crazy about exams coming up again (and I did really well on the first midterm, not sure about the other course, only doing two this term, one is 5 credits) so you'd think I would... http://www.healthcentral.com/bipolar/c/741637/91957/brain http://www.healthcentral.com/bipolar/c/741637/88013/god-scared Wed, 23 Sep 2009 21:55:48 -0400 Kad So I saw my doc today, mostly because I have some kind of dumb mucus membrane infection (yuck, double yuck) with just one side of my face in major pain and weird blisters in my mouth, what the heck is that? Its happened before. I need T3's to manage it and lots my tolerance is high. Another issue though, of great importance. I can't stand taking gravol several times a week on lithium and want to find out if we can try something else for a while... http://www.healthcentral.com/bipolar/c/741637/88013/god-scared http://www.healthcentral.com/bipolar/c/741637/85665/obsessing-blows Sun, 06 Sep 2009 00:24:45 -0400 Kad So I like that my meds have got me not screaming anymore, trying to off myself, yada yada, bla bla. Even was getting spells of "hyper-hypo the motor-mouthed freak" and "diggity-dig for treasure for endless hours weirdo" near the end of it as well. It sure would be nice to not obesess over what I think someone else is thinking of me though, the stupidest things.

I thought I would die when I first started on it, and each time adjusting was literal hell. I tried to drink one night during that time and nearly died...guess I should have known better. I can a little now, but probably still shouldn't. I have so many mornings where I think I've eaten enough to take my pills and I haven't but the only way I can find out is to be sick as a dog for two or more hours, at work or home... http://www.healthcentral.com/bipolar/c/741637/85395/lithium-ups-downs http://www.healthcentral.com/bipolar/c/741637/85006/anoying Mon, 31 Aug 2009 22:46:21 -0400 Kad In my 30's now the BP peaked recent years ago and after a barage of meds am now stable on Lithium, Topirimate and Wellbutrin. However I am always feeling like I don't want to go out much (I do some), I talk and goof around at work but it seems like no one wants to be friends (I'm not boo-hooing) I honestly look from the outside and wonder if I seem bipolar to them, just weird or something. Like are they afraid of me...then I say perhaps they... http://www.healthcentral.com/bipolar/c/741637/85006/anoying
