This is really becoming hysterical. We all have this secret wish to come on this board and find someone who will say "no way, youre fine" (despite the fact we know we are grasping at straws and we realize we do this questioning-acceptance-questioning over and over). Well maybe I should change "we" to "me". But I think this is better, even if it is not want we/I want.
Im having similar problems with the meds/BP/school thing right now too. Sometimes my performance is enhanced in the early parts of the up-swing, but the rest of the time it is not, to say the least. But the next step is to try lithium again, and I cant risk cognitive impairment, especially if it is ineffective and therefore that is the sole thing I get from it. Plus I dont really know why he (the doc) thinks that will work, considering that it is supposedly pretty bad for rapid cycling, although he says he has had some good results with it despite of what is said in the literature. Well, thats about it for now. Thanks for responding.
