I appreciate all the feedback I am getting and am going to try to answer a few of the questions that have come up and maybe add some commentary on others. By the way I saw my new pdoc today and my new therapist since I just moved from NJ to GA about 4 weeks ago and I just now finally got tied back in with the mental health system. I have another appointment next week that I hope will start to get into dealing with my problems and not just a fact finding mission. They added trazodone to my normal buffet of Eskalith, depakote, and zyprexa. We'll see what happens.

> -How is your relationships with family/friends/etc?Things are great right now for the most part with both my family and friends
> -How are finances?
My finances pretty much suck right now. I have had to move back in with my parents for awhile to try and get back on my feet.
> -How is your job...that sounds like a MAJOR trigger point.
My job sucks but for now I am basically stuck because I recently got my drivers license suspended for a year. I had to take a job close to home that had hours in which I could get rides from my parents.
> -How is your health physically?
Physically the only thing going on is I am slightly overweight.
> -About what age range are you in?
I am 28 yrs old.
Chris:I am glad that Zyprexa has had such a great effect for you. I have been on it for several monthes now and I still have the thoughts I posted about. I guess meds work different for different people.
Katey:
You had some good points about suicidal ideation and suicidal intent. It took me a couple minutes to ponder over that and for me I feel like I teater back and forth between the two. Some days I will be dealing with the suicidal ideation then others will dive into suicidal intent going so far as to set the drugs aside pick the day and best time to do it and have a full plan set out.THESE THOUGHTS SUCK AND I JUST WANT THEM TO GO AWAY!!!!
