It was Bob Marley’s Buffalo Soldier. In fact, as I type this I can hear it playing in my head. The funny thing is that the sound automatically took me back to my childhood. My cousins and I were sitting in someone’s living room. The radio was playing. That song was on. And my older cousin was sitting on this huge comfy chair while the rest of us kids were sitting on the ground. Why do I remember this seemingly mundane event? My cousin spontaneously began belting out the song, dancing to the beat and being as silly as a kid can be. We rolled on the floor and laughed until our sides hurt. It was a memorable moment. We were young, spontaneous and free. How does this relate to this week’s top post...

I joined your group for friends and tips on dealing with problems with Major Depression. I feel like I just make my church friends uncomfortable, and they can’t understand why I haven’t snapped out of it and declared amazing victory through my faith.” I experienced that too, which was very disappointing. Because my faith is such a huge part of my recovery from depression and addiction, I didn’t understand why so few Christians, and even fewer pastors or religious leaders, knew what to say. One time in college I stood up in the middle of a homily and walked out. The priest...

No wonder I was feeling “stuck,” as the job I had created for myself was no longer very challenging (especially with the limited resources I had available versus the rampant resources available to startups). 5 Years Ago on Psych Central J&J Warned on Claims About Antipsychotic Drug In an ominous warning of things to come, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 5 years ago warned the J&J unit...

Symbyax (olanzapine and fluoxetine HCl capsules) manufactured by Eli Lilly and Company was originally approved for treatment of bipolar depression. It’s now approved for acute treatment of treatment-resistant depression. This means if you’ve been treated with other medications for your depression without success, this medication may be tried and may work for you. It gives doctors another tool. The FDA has also approved a change in indication for Lexapro (escitalopram oxalate ) for the acute and maintenance treatment of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) in adolescents, 12 - 17 years of age. Before the approval, there was only one medication approved f...

I, also, run it into the ground with y’all. My last post was about no insurance and meds. I’ve realized that whining has not gotten me anywhere. NONE of you sent me money. JK….or am I? So, being the bipolar resourceful chick that I am, I’ve come up with a brand new idea (after picking up my meds on Friday and paying out the bunghole). I’m gonna……..BEG. Right on the street corner with the other panhandlers. The difference between me and them, though, is I’m gonna be honest.

I just knew even before I got to this statement that it was going to be said, “Many parents say that a bipolar diagnosis meant they were no longer blamed for their children’s behavior.” What a nicely packaged excuse for bad parenting. This seriously makes me mad as hell. An 18 month old baby with a BP diagnosis because she cries all the time? My oldest daughter cried a hellova lot. She had a bipolar mother and…….COLIC.!! It’s scary to think that she could have been diagnosed as BP because of crying. What’s wrong with these people? It’s just too easy to blame your young kid’s problems on a disorder.

Actually, it’s with the green-behind-the-ears PA. She’s a sweet kid. I think she’s in over her head. The pdoc has practically turned over most of his patients to her. He’s busy high-profiling elsewhere. I’ve said this before but will repeat it. He looks like an Indian Mo…..of 3 Stooges. He has put that girl in a serious situation. She is fresh out of PA school and has been thrown into a den of hungry, psycho lions. I’m not saying that I’m smarter than her. I am saying that I have a lot more experience with mental disorders and have seen just about everything. There is a large amount of patients there who could be trouble for her. Patients who have been misdiagnosed. Especially teenagers who think that it’s “COOL&... bipolar chicks blogging blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=638367 Thu, 24 May 2007 14:21:50 +0100 638367
