Ugh. Bipolar Disorder sucks. My PDoc just can't seem to find a medication for my mania that doesn't make me into a George Romero character (yes, I'm referring to zombies here). I've been through no less than seven drugs for Bipolar Disorder with only one success and that was prozac for my depression. So, although I'm not feeling depressed like I was, I am manic almost all the time right now. At least the mania is manageable and I'm highly creative and productive when I'm like this. But, it's also like I've had a pot of coffee and some speed some days too. It's not all sunshine and roses, to say the least.

So, you guys keep your fingers crossed for me that I find some medication that controls both depression AND mania and yet doesn't make me uber-drugged. I need all the help I can get. :S

(Note: This is just a rant cause I'm irritated that the 2 new meds I tried didn't work. No need for major worry. Just a way to let people know I desire their sympathy and in some cases, empathy.)
