Hey everyone! I guess things are alright. I am not cycling nearly as much as I was, still up and down but not huge. The anxiety is the only thing that is really really bad. I am actually sleeping, so I think that is helping alot. The paxil makes me so sleepy and I sweat ALOT and it makes me not want to eat and I lost 6 lbs this week. I am eating about half of what I was eating before and its so nice. School is keeping me super busy. Other than that things are okay...

Good to hear that things are okay. I don't know if you have any eating issues, but if you don't lose too much weight on us okay? Paxil made me manic as hell, but I'm glad it's working for you.
Are you taking anything for the anxiety? I have been taking ativan PRN for over a year now and then they added clonazepam (which is, surprisingly, an anticonvulsant, not a benzo) and I need to take the ativan a whole lot less. Maybe something worth talking to the doc about?
Good to hear that the cycling is less extreme. That's the best my pdoc said I could hope for, that I'd never be "normal" so to speak. (Make that soon to be former pdoc - I am already seeing a new one (actually p/tdoc combined) but have one more appointment with the old pdoc that was made 2 months ago and at that time I wanted to stop seeing her but now I'm starting to get excited about seeing her and saying LOOK what I've ACCOMPLISHED!!!).
Sorry, didn't mean to blab so much about me!
Hey honey!
I'm glad you posted...I was getting worried!!! I'm doing a lot better too...I started Trileptal...300 mgs so far...and I added in 300 Lithium...still taking the Wellbutrin...but only 150 mgs...still up in the air about whether or not to increase it...need to decide today though...gotta get pdoc to call in rx's...and 400 topamax. I'm supposed to increase Trileptal to 600 mgs then to 900 mgs...but I don't know if i wanna go that high...we'll see.
I'm glad you're doing better...talk to you soon.
Love you...
