New Meds… Again…

Mr. Bipolar

Welp just got back from another visit with the psychiatrist and she is changing my medication lineup yet again.

Depression: Wellbutrin, Anxiety: Zoloft, Mood Stabilizer: Trileptal

Zoloft was added today for anxiety. The doctor still wants to bring me off the mood stabilizer next month but she wants me to be on these other meds for a month before shifting off of the mood stabilizer.

At this point I am surrendering to my doctor who knows more than me. She says she doesnt think I’m bipolar but I guess time will tell. I feel like a Guinea pig.

I am 38 years old and recently learned that I may be bipolar. I am learning as much as I can as I discover myself with this newly acquired "label". I am not afraid of the diagnosis, rather I am afraid of not being able to learn and live with the diagnosis. I firmly believe that with the right medication and right medical care I can continue to live a successful life post diagnosis while keeping my eyes open for potential pitfalls that I am learning to be more acutely aware of.
