Hey Daizy, how you doing babe??? Just happened to be browsing PB, bored... came across your message, so yeah, figured I would answer it.Daizy, I've never felt so "normal" before in my life than the way I've been feeling for the past 2 months. No severe ups, no severe downs, just kind of in the middle... where I guess most people that don't have personality disorders exist.
What have I been taking to get to this point?
1mg of Klonopin every night to help me sleep and to calm me down (Benzo)
10mg of Seroquel every night before bed to help me sleep and to calm me down (Anti-Psychotic)
375mg of Depakote per day... 125 mg in the morning, 250 at night... (Mood Stabilizer)
20mg of Celexa every night (Anti-Depressant)
You know how I was before... now I'm out every day babe... I had a job, would have kept it if the lay-offs in the high-tech industry weren't so tough around here.... I have my own car now and have been driving around the city every day for like the past 2 weeks... I've got a gf whom I haven't had a real arguement with in about a month... I'm still taking some College Level Courses to improve my Computer Skills and my head is working perfectly, and I'm sleeping like a baby and getting the rest that I need...
So... why question what a medication does and just give them a chance, see if they work, and get yourself back on your feet? We were pretty much at the same level once untill I realized that "I" was the only one that could make my situation any better... so I did it... now you just need to find the courage inside of yourself to do the same thing
lol... I still can't get over the numerous different meds I need to take to make myself feel right... but hey... I wouldn't go back to how I was for anything in the world.....
