Sort of an update: I felt awful. I took Lithium. I felt better. I felt awful again. I can't even describe what that week or so of feeling good was like. It wasn't even feeling GOOD per se, just feeling normal. What a rush to be walking down the street and feeling nothing. Just feeling like, "hey, I'm walking down the street and ain't the weather

I have been enjoying this series: At Least There's the Football

It's Lestrade/Mycroft, which is not usually my cuppa, but this is so lovely - the author gives Lestrade a whole family and personality, there's backstory to Anthea and Mycroft's 'relationship,' and the whole thing is really the slowest build ever - in a good way. It's funny, sweet, insightful and very well written. There's an eensy bit of background John/Sherlock too. I haven't quite finished it yet (part 12 of 14) so I can't tell you if there's a happy ending, but I've enjoyed it so far.

Also: Pretty photos of the Merlin gang even though I haven't watched it in ages.

Oh, hon. *hugs*

IDK if it helps, but I had many blips of normality like you describe when I was slowly, slowly titrating up to the dose of lamictal that I'm on now. Do you think this might be a dosage thing?

and *more hugs*

The kittens are awesome.

I read And You Say You're Alone by taelynhawker and enjoyed it, hope you do too.

I'm sorry the lithium's effect was temporary. But at least if it could work for a while, another prescription will work longer term, once found, I hope.

I'm so sorry you're going through this.

Like a previous commenter, I'm wondering about dosage. Are you able to increase?

I had success with Lithium. For a while. But do to entirely too much going on and off... it got so the dosage I needed for results left me with side effects I couldn't live with.

What really bites with head meds is that they are so individual. I had some success on prozac, but my last ex-husband was one of those who turned psycho on it. Never can tell.

Oh my goodness -- so adorable! I am attempting to send some cat-seeking new roommates your way . . .

Many hugs to you. I'm sorry things continue bleak. You know I am only one among many who is thinking of you and wishing you well.
