Bipolar Disorder

Quote From: tammyo1973

Not sure about this... BUT wanted to say welcome back and WOOHOO... I was having withdrawls ;)

Hopefully tomorrow will be busy and we can all get to know each other again.

For now I think we need to re-do our BIO's like EM asked us to do a while back...

 

MINE:

Tammy, 31 mom of 2

14 yr old daughter, Emily bp, ptsd, gad. Is ok but wondering if she is cycling into depression, she is having a lot of psychotic symptoms or just not use to being alone. We will call pdoc monday and ask.

 

3 yr old daughter, Logan, who is normal but today was going 100 miles a minute. She scares me because I over annalyze everything she does.

 

My hubby is wonderful works all the time so I don't :)

 

My bestfriends are theones I have made here.

Love ya'll

Talk tomorrow

Lots of hugs and love TaM

I haven't posted here before but it’s really cool to see that you’re so involved with your daughter

I have bipolar disorder, I was diagnosed at 13 and I’m 17 now. It has been an up hill battle and its not near over. My mom has been incredibly supportive. This illness has put a huge strain on our relationship at times but in the end when the depression, anger and mania are over I'm so happy she is there for me. I wouldn’t be stable with ought her. I'm happy to see we aren’t the only ones that have managed well.

Often, a person in high mania will experience hallucinations, etc.  This is from lack of sleep & also from deprivation of folic acid to the brain. Your daughter should be on a good combination of medications which specifically work for teenagers.  Meds have different effects on teens than on adults. I take seroquel for good sleep, to ward off psychosis. Best of luck to you! You are a caring Mom
