Welcome to The Bi Polar Rant Zone!

Welcome to The Bi Polar Rant Zone, a place where you can share med and doctor stories, ask, gave and receive advice and in general rant until you run out of things to talk about.

First thing you should know: I am NOT a Doctor or a Therapist. I'm just a person like you, whose life has been altered by BPD or BiPolar Disorder. I have been through the ringer and back and I picked up some stories along the way.

I have Severe Rapid Cycling Manic Depressive BiPolar II Disorder, Moderate to Significant Attention Deficit Disorder, Mild Panic Disorder and Display Symptoms associated with Autism. My Cocktail: Keppra, Effexor, Trileptal, Klonopin, Provigil, Concerta, does it sound like a lot: YES, am I over-medicated: POSSIBLY, Does anything else work: NO, Trust me! I was first diagnosed at age 15, and have you noticed that doctors always will tell you you're luck to have them catch something early, you want to know what lucky is by my definition: Not having anything to be caught! It took most of high school to get me stable, now I'm in College and still working on my end of keeping me stable. But personally, I am SICK AND TIRED of people telling me that my disease is all in my head and all I need is to quit whining. Why do these people think that they know more about my illness then I do they think I like being like this? So if anyone's out there reading this tell me, You Are NOT Alone.
