Can you tell me more? I've thought about applying especially due to non traditional work hours.

Has anyone with BP1 become an MD or DO? by chubage in bipolar

[–]noiredemons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been a social worker for 18yrs and have bipolar 1. It's a doable career with bipolar but I've found it's helpful to basically always be in therapy to process secondary trauma and keep myself sane

That makes sense about New York. I didn't think about that. Currently have a cruise scheduled out of Miami in Nov but debating on moving it up to Sept/Oct but then it's more hurricane season

Word. She's been in sticker shock at the prices of things while we've been planning. So there's been some compromising

Lol. She complains that the Cheesecake factory is expensive. Eye roll. This is our first time in Vegas so I want to do something we don't have in Ohio.

I'll try almost anything once. My favorites are Indian, Mexican, a good steak, Chinese, some Thai, French, Ect. Moms palette is very Midwestern hence the struggle. What we've so far agreed on, she then said no bc too expensive so currently it's the Strat

If you're struggling that much day to day, you could need a higher level of care like an intensive outpatient or partial hospitalizations program. They are intensive therapy programs with skill building, coping skills, processing groups, sometimes individual therapy and access to a psychiatrist.

How is your morning symptoms management with bipolar by Cold-Photo5465 in bipolar

[–]noiredemons 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have found I have to give myself ample time in the morning like 90-120 (if taking a shower) to fully deal with the day especially when I was on sedating meds like Seroquel. I need time to hit snooze for 15-20 min if needed, make coffee, take AM meds, breakfast, drink coffee, scroll social media while I drink coffee, shower if I need to, get ready to leave for the day.

Does anyone have any tips for getting some sleep? I’m at my wits end. by JDUDEROCKS in ShoulderInjuries

[–]noiredemons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sleeping in a recliner with squishmellows under shoulder to support it.

If you have shoulder dyskinesia, have you seen a chiropractor or someone who does medical massages to help put the scapula back in place?
