Hi Ladies,


I am on the upswing, and I know this crash is going to hurt. I have been up for 4 days now. Not sleeping, barely eating, and I can't sit still. Even as I sit here typing this out my legs are going a mile a minute. My house is clean, really clean. Even knowing that I will re-cleaning it tomorrow. I am almost to the point where the anger will start. I hate that part. I will be irritable, and get angry when I get interrupted while I am doing something. Of course, I have 2 kids that will need my time and attention. So, I will be interrupted a lot. I am all alone tonight,and will be alone tomorrow night because DH is working mid shifts.


I have put away my debit card,and my credit cards, so I won't be tempted to use them. Even though I need to buy a new dress because we have a semi-formal party coming up in a couple of weeks. I don't see my Pdoc until the 3rd and I am hoping I can hold out.


I am sorry if I haven't been keeping up with the posts. I am just trying to rein in this mania.
I hope you all are doing good.
Have a wonderful day.


Love and hugs to all,

Hey Cyn, since both of our DH will be gone, how bout we keep each other company! sorry about the mania, BTDT too many times to count. i hope your crash (praying that you don't have one) is cushioned by the prayers and positive thoughts from everyone on the board.

as far as the credit cards, good luck lol! i gave my DH my credit cards about 3 weeks ago, went on a mad search for them, i literally trashed his office looking for them because i told him to hide them. im not gonna tell you how i got the account numbers cause i never did find the cards. i charged up a storm last week and this week, now feeling very guilty :{ boxes started showing up today, i opened them, looked at the contence, and repacked them! gonna send it all back still have to explain to DH how i ordered them in the first place. i feel like a total jerk. i hope your stronger than i was! matter of fact, i KNOW you are!

i hope everything turns out well and remember, im here when and if you get lonely.

Hi Valerie,


I have been pretty good at restraining myself with the spending. With the move coming up, my big thing is saving money. We have to be a new car when we get back Stateside, not to mention paying for lodging,and food

been going thru mixed episode today extremely depressed and slightly manic. i know its because DH will be gone for awhile. having a cold doesnt help. had to take a sedative so when he gets home today ill be semi-sane. ive totally lost my voice so now i sound like marge simpson. im trying to act normal for when he comes home because i don't want him to pospone trip. this a very important trip for his job and i don't want him to go away worried so thats stressful too.

i'll keep you company till you fall asleep if you want me too.

Hi Keli,


I am hanging in there. Still up in the clouds. Wondering when this will end. I am going to sit here at my desk, chat with a old friend and listen to music. Hopefully, I will start to come down a little.


How are you doing? You are on Cymbalta right? Or am I confused again? If you are taking it, have you had any side effects from it? A friend of mine was told by her specialist to try it for pain. It hasn't been approved for

Hey hon...yes, I'm on Cymbalta and I love it...I will caution you though...the discontinuation syndrome is pretty bad, even if you miss one dose...you get the nausea, and brain zapping sensations pretty quick...but, other than that, it works EXCELLENTLY on my depression...and I've heard good things about it working on pain too...at the very first when I started taking it, I got slightly nauseated, but it doesn't last...the worst part is the discontinuation affects, but it wasn't as bad as coming off Effexor was!


I hope you're starting to come down some...I'm so glad I'm not manic right now...with all I have going on in my life, that would not be pretty.
