>I wish I were that average person; sigh...

Hey, mental illness give you character! :)

> What meds are you on? Have you found that they help w/ this?

I am on 75mg Effexor, 150mg of Wellbutrin and 50mg of Lamictal (I've only been on the Lamictal for 3 weeks.) I find that there doesn't seem to be anything that improves it. Or rather, completely gets rid of it. If my mood is stable the effect isn't so grandiose. If at a low part of my cycle it's terrible! I think when I'm manic I don't care how much noise anyone makes because I'm probably making it right along with them :D

> I see my pdoc on Monday and will request Paxil. I need help w/ the anxiety part right now. I'm on 450mg of Trileptal and 25mg of Lamictal. The lam. is making me more agitated and anxious.

SSRIs are out for me. They make me completely manic. Zoloft pretty much sent me over the edge with a mixed state overdose that resulted in my first hospitalization. Lamictal has been known to induce hypomania at low doses and/or when starting out. I'm not sure if that's what's happening to me but I'm all for it...it's making me really productive and I'm feeling *smart* on it LOL...I don't think it's mania as a few components are missing from my normal highs. Maybe you need to up the Lamictal? How long have you been on it? Do you find the Trileptal does anything for you? I was on Tegretol (precursor of Trilep.) and it stopped my manias but did nothing for my depression.

Hi Karen,
Wow! you're on two ADs and you're not manic? It sounds like you JUST started the Lamictal. A few weeks ago (two months) I tried WB w/ Trileptal and went loopey crazy. Previously and prior to my BPII dx I had tried Effexor and also went hypomanic on it. Zoloft made me a zombie. Celexa made me an insomniac and worse off. Serzone made me hypo and then just after Serzone exactly a year ago, I got the BPII dx.

I started Tril. when I was coming down off a hypo period two months ago and it seemed to soften the blow. But I do feel mildly depressed and anxious. I'm thinking about adding Paxil onto my Trileptal and doing away w/ the Lam. The lam is making my anxiety worse. When I was previously on it, I got that euphoria you talk about, but not this time. So who knows what trileptal is actually doing for me now. I just need to be less tense and anxious. I feel like I have an ulcer. It's terrible. I wake up in pain. Health suffers when there is anxiety.
I'm actually off to the doctor's now to inquire about it. Normally they don't tell me a whole lot. They will probably slap the label irritable bowel syndrome on me and send me off.

I have the same experiences w/ the noise. When I'm low, IT'S AWFUL. when I feel good, it's tolerable and when I"m up I fit right in.

Yeah, I'm surprised I'm not manic either but for me, I think it's just the SSRIs. I've talked to other bipolar folks that are also on other ADs. Supposedly Wellbutrin is one of the few that doesn't induce mania. My problem with Wellbutrin is that I need the Effexor to make it work and the Wellbutrin to make the Effexor work...weird augmented relationship between the two. Or at least that's what I've guessed in the past. I don't like the Effexor because of the sexual side effects but hey, what can you do? Better that than cycling all over the place. I'm on a low dose of each so sides shouldn't be a problem but they still are. Once things even out with the Lamictal and I get where I need to be, I might ask to go off the Effexor. We'll see. I'm really much more of an anticonvulsant responder--so I'm learning anyway!

Let me know how your appointment went.

Where are you in the world, anyway...I'm in Toronto.

While I don't agree that this is a "disorder," I have experienced these things my entire life. They've had both a positive and negative effect my development, but I see it more as an advantage.

There is a book that specifically addresses these issues that I'm currently reading and have thus far found very helpful. It's called "The Highly Sensitive Person: How to Thrive When the World Overwhelms You" by Elaine N. Aron, Ph.D. Most libraries have it, and it's a quick read, but I suggest anyone interested in the topic take a look at it because it's a very different view from most others, in that it looks upon it as a gift and not a "disorder."

Hi Jeff,
I have tried to get that book - in other words, been meaning to read it for years. I know part of this is a gift part of it is a curse. It's hard to live in the curse part. But it makes for living a highly dynamic life. Just wish I could find a partner who can put up w/ the wild ride!!!

Well, we're all different and these wacky meds can do just about anything, I find. I used to drink...right up until I started the Lamictal! Now I find if I do, I get a headache and sometimes a bit of tummy trouble. I never had that problem with Tegretol. I work with a guy that takes Teg. for epilepsy and he has the same problem but with a more severe effect. Epilepsy doses are a lot higher though so I don't know if it's dose related. Could be. Hypersexual/anything-pleasureable??? Yep, that was me in my manic state. I lived like that for years. How I did I have no idea. I look back on the behaviour and just my memories make me exhausted. Yeah, I remember when I would masturbate, like 5 times a day or something... Well, okay that's a bit excessive but you get the picture. That can be a given for a guy but not so common with women--haha...

But back to the drinking...I self medicated with alcohol for years...it's so intricately tied to my mania. I still drank to try and compensate for the depressive lows as well...I drank every day for several years...then I kind of dried out for a couple and then straight back at it!

I'm now taking 75mg Effexor, 150mg Wellbutrin and 50mg Lamictal. I've only been on the Lamictal for three weeks so I need to find out how that progresses...if I can stay at this level or if it needs to be increased. It's doing a good job but supposedly the anti-manic effects don't hit until it's a bit higher. Who knows though.

Paxil? Here's another example of individual response--SSRIs send me to the moon! And sometimes not in a good way. Zoloft drove me into a suicidal dysphoric mania/mixed state. It was my first overdose and landed me in the hospital for two weeks.

Sensory Integration Disorder - do I have it???

In reply to Re: Sensory Integration Disorder - relief??? » Jeff Leeson, posted by katia on April 23, 2004, at 4:02:18

Sounds I hate...someone chewing their food loud. Slurping soup, etc. drives me nuts. Gulping while drinking... Water tapping in the sink. Repetitive movements that people do like tapping their hands, shaking their feet and smoking (the back and forth movement of hand and blowing the smoke drives me nuts). People continuously clearing throats or picking their teeth. If someone is writing an exam beside me and they're gulping on a pop I feel like putting the pop through their head. I haven't gone one day through life without some sound bothering me. The worst is when I'm in a closed car where sounds are amplified. And I know I must be annoying to be around. I wish these sounds didn't bother me so much. Are these characteristics typical of SID or am I way off?

Thanks

Hey Karen,
Does this guy on TEg. get upset stomachs after drinking?
Maybe this explains my chronic diarrhea.
I work in a restaurant waiting tables and so the no drinking thing is hard for me at the moment.

I'll write more later as I'm exhausted and need to rest. p.s. you're not missing too much here - stay in Canada meds are cheap and people a bit more sane!

I haven't had time to go through this entire thread, but after reading many of the messages I wonder if anyone in the thread has actually been diagnosed with SID?

Having read a fair amount of medical literature on SID, it appears to be a rather serious disorder that significantly interferes with behavioral development when it can be accurately diagnosed. The thrust of the descriptions of this illness seems to be an internal inability to process certain documented stimuli, resulting in marked developmental limitations or behavioral oddities. Although irritation with behaviors of other people might mimic some aspects of SID, it appears that actual SID involves much more than this.

Many of the described irritations with other people's behaviors (foot wagging, gum chewing, finger tapping) could easily fall within dx of ADD, GAD, or the experience of the hypomanic phase of BPII.

**God I only hope so because one dx is enough (BPII). However, since being treated for BP, it hasn't gone away and it appears for me worse when depressed/mixed. Meds don't seem to do much for me unfortunately I'm destined to live like this forever. The other SID therapy also looks impossible too - years and years of it? I'm 33 and pretty set in my ways in regards to these disturbances unfortunately and no one seems to be able to do anything about them. It's a form of hell to be caged within the indurance of this stimuli - whatever it's called.

Anyone try kinesiology?

How could I forget! Both sounds drive me nuts especially if the gum chewing also involves blowing bubbles... I think such sounds aggrevate me more than even my anxiety because I feel like I'm a pressure cooker who wants to pulverize the person making these sounds but I know I can't. Interestingly, most sounds that bother me usually involve sounds that people make.

I used to have SUCH a problem w/ gum smackers as a kid. And for some strange reason in my twisted mind I somehow switched it around to be a relaxing sound. Explanation unknown?! Wish I could do this w/ ALL my disturbances if I only know how I did it w/ that one!

But don't you agree that these things CAUSE anxiety and depression? I know they do in me. First anxiety and then a crash into sadness.

I always thought that the two are related but not that one causes the other. I've always felt I have a very hypersensitive neural system and this leads both to my oversensitivity to sounds and my oversensitivity to other anxiety-provoking situations. One of the withdrawl symptoms coming of benzos or even booze is these type of hypersensitivy reactions. I feel like this is how I am normally.

When there's a sound/sensory experience many people might find a bit annoying, that same sound/sensory experience drives me crazy. When there's a situation that may cause others a bit of anxiety, my anxiety level goes through the roof. Sometimes this can give me a real "high".

I guess you may be right, they probably do influence other but it feels more like both my oversensitivity to sounds and anxiety in many other situations are caused by an oversensitive neural/adrenaline system.

You really just described it. Situations where most people would be a little annoyed I"m outraged and can't take it. It kind of makes it worse because the other person only has their level of annoyance to base any reality on and normally the response is "it's not that bad; quit being so neurotic/difficult; you're making it worse; relax; let it go; get over it." All of which make it even worse and indignant!

Anyone in these lovely two categories w/ SID and BP ever try Paxil for it?
I saw my pdoc yesterday and got some paxil to add on to Trileptal for anxiety and depression.

Anyone had experiences w/ Paxil as a BP or as a BP w/ SID?

BTW, my pdoc had never heard of SID. It wasn't very reassuring.

After thinking about it, I don't know what to say about possible SID. I hve a problem with aural stuff and yet I'm also the sort of person to do the repetitive movement, knee bouncing, fidgety stuff. Who knows?

As far as being BP and taking SSRIs...they make me manic or drive me into a mixed state everytime!

I'm having a brain cramp...what's MS? Oh...Mood Stabilizer!

Not as much. It takes the depression away (seems to be right now) so I'm not as sensitive. I do tend to get more fidgety etc... when I'm on the manic side of things.
