I overslept with all the drugs for the first few days. It takes some time to adjust to them. The bags. Oh yes, respiradol bags. Forgot about them. You'll have them. You are also exhausted from not getting enough sleep for a while. It should even out after a few days but if it does not that's an issue for the doctor.
I'm so glad you are trying again and I truly believe that in the long run you will be glad. Once you have your medication down you will feel that you have your illness under control and that you are no longer controlled by it. I've seen so many posts over the past few days from people saying that their lives are "hell" and that they are so miserable. I don't feel that way at all.
Bipolar disorder is not the central fact of my life; it's just an illness I have to deal with before I can go on with the rest of my life.
