Hmmm.. It is strange that you've done better off meds than on. But, could it be that you're more stressed due to buying the house? You know YOU better than I do (and that sorta rhymes!! :)) and if your sleeping is becoming affected and other signs are there, better to be safe than sorry...
I hate "the switch" Going from being very happy to miserable in what seems to be a short amount of time. I'm crossing my fingers on that.... I'll keep one crossed for you, k?
Have you heard any more about the house?
Nope, I'm not on Topamax anymore :( And I feel fine. For some reason, I thought that all of the sudden I'd wake up completely manic or depressed. Go figure. But, I wil get back on it as soon as insurance gets worked out. I don't mind taking a break, a long as I don't start to cycle. And I'm still taking Abilify at night, which is supposed to help control manic episodes. I had some "stockpiled" in my pantry. And my Pdoc put me back on it when Iwent to see him last week. I see him again next week, and I just know he's going to yell at me again. But, I'll slap him if I have to.... I don't mind. Maybe I'll get back on my drugs sooner if I do slap him.. In the hospital! Ok, maybe I won't slap him, I'll just cry. But, I'd rather slap him than cry....
