I don't know that I'll ever be completely well. There seems to be a biological basis to the mood cycles and meltdowns that somehow got triggered by postpartum hormones and have never let up.

But I'm getting a lot more philosophical about it. If I can see it happening, I'll go on Risperdal for a few days, throw in an extra therapy session or two and sleep as much as possible. It's when I can't see it coming that it's a problem. Fortunately, I've got good friends who give me a little warning when I'm not quite right.

And yes, he seems quite comfortable with the idea of seeing me as long as he's capable of practicing. :) So my abandonment fears rarely get triggered any more. Whew.
