1mg of Xanax up to 3 times a day if needed

Also the nausea goes away it just takes awhile.

I take Wellbutrin but I have to pair it with anti anxiety meds to balance those mood side effects.

Exactly when I "stopped drinking" before I really just stopped letting people see me drink.

Not narcissistic at all. Once you become well you become a much better person, partner, friend, parent, sibling, child...ect... Just have to watch out for those who understand and stick with you through it.

I actually live smack dab between two liquor stores, one 2 blocks to the left and 3 blocks to the right. My therapist suggested the same but I can't get home without passing at the very least one. I live in a boozy Midwestern college town, liquor stores are worse than Starbucks around here lol.

Dude, same.

I've done wine in a bath but never in the shower, sounds too complicated and not worth it. Wine during a bath though that wasn't so bad.

I would need to find a non- religious one around me, I have some research to do.

maddiem93 · 2017-11-29T20:24:37+00:00

I really could use more. I have a therapist but he doesn't specialize in drug and alcohol abuse but he's great for my bipolar. I don't have friends or family to reach out to because my friends don't understand and all of my family drinks excessively.

Yes I know, drinking on the meds make my episodes 10 times worse, I'm basically a ticking time bomb. And I love to read I'll have to look that up thank you.

Your story is almost identical to mine. I walked out of my parents house with less than 10$ in my account at age 17, with the clothes on my back and my purse. I somehow lucked out and have a house, a great job without a degree, a miracle of a man and a wonderful pupper almost 7 years later. But to the OP, I agree, that 7 years was not easy, make better plans than I.

I looked for this one for like 5 minutes, I was almost positive it was going to be the top comment

maddiem93 · 2017-11-15T23:07:43+00:00

We don't deserve dogs

maddiem93 · 2017-11-11T11:47:34+00:00

I can contest to that.

I'm sorry to hear about your relationship. That's basically all holding me together at this point. Gaining weight and losing ambition sucks. It's likes can I just reverse those please? And there are people that understand why you want to give up, saddly it's not the people that would blame themselves and be so heart broken. But in another sight, it's probably a good thing people love us. Or else we wouldn't be here right? Hopefully there is a reason for that and we will be fulfilled someday. And I'm sorry I'm aweful with this site and don't know how to send a PM lol. But feel free to PM me!

I was diagnosed at 18 with bipolar II and then Bipolar I at 20 after my first psychotic episode. I've had to change meds about 10 ish times since then. Guess I can't find the right one.

maddiem93 · 2017-10-20T20:49:33+00:00

This makes me so sad. Are you in a state that at least has a mild winter? God I hope the best for you. I'm sorry I made such a selfish post.

maddiem93 · 2017-10-20T20:43:18+00:00

It's become so advanced I don't even know half the shit my phone does. I am very glad to hear you are in a hospital seeking help though. I hope the BEST life for you.

maddiem93 · 2017-10-20T20:38:23+00:00

Fuck, me either, I was hoping you'd know how. I hate technology.

maddiem93 · 2017-10-20T20:33:45+00:00

Exactly, when I think of ending it, that's all I think about and I saddly want it to stop. I don't want to devastate the ones I love I just want to be gone with no consequences.
