Quote From: call_me_momThanks so much for the info. I have looked it up and it kindda just made me more curious as to what was going on. I mean with all the medical mumbo jumbo, thanks for breaking it down in plain old english. My Dr. didnt even explain things to me, and she gave me Xanax .5mg which barely takes the edge off. Im looking for a Doctor who deals with Bipolar Disorder as i speak, but no luck as of yet. About the highs and lows, I think im stuck in the lows.... depressed all the time and cry at the drop of a dime. This Xanax Im on does nothing for me. I feel so nervous and tired all the time. But I got three numbers to dr.s today that Im calling tomorrow , hopefully one can help. I even tried the local Common Grounds, a mental health resourse company and they turned me away. Not "SICK" for them to help !!! oh ok then!!! lol And your right, I felt so much better knowing what was going on, like now i know im not going crazy.. Well..... that remains to be seen...lol i still feel like im going nuts at times.
Well thanks again for everything, feel free to write me, I will probably write you, as i might just have more question for ya as i go through this. If that is ok with you. Good to know Im not alone in this.
Good Night,
Joyce
I'm glad you are looking for a doctor to fit your needs. Most people with bipolar are on more than one med to treat the various symptoms. Don't give up on the meds. I don't know much about Xanax. I hope that you find a good doc who will work with you to find the right meds to help you feel better. It is a comfort to know that we are not alone in this.
