The Rapid Cycling won't stop.

I posted a while ago about my problem with this .
For four months now I have been a million different people.
I finally told my husband and therapist.
I need serious help.
My meds are not working.
I am addicted to my klonopin.
I ran up all these bills, I came home so drunk I didn't know who I was.
I am the life of the party ,
But when I am home alone I cry and bury Myself in bed.
My PTSD is also out of control .
My mind is in a complete whirl.
I don't understand I was stable for so long.
I keep changing everything my house my clothing style my hair color.
You name it its out of control.
So are my thoughts.

What type of meds are you taking? Are you on any anti-psychotics? Have you had any med changes at all the past 6 months? To me it sounds like you need a med adjustment...maybe an increase in your mood stabalizer or anti-psychotic if you are on one. I am not a doctor but I know this seems like your mania is out of control and needs to be stabilized with meds. Do you see a pdoc? What does your tdoc say about this? I am sure this is a rough time on you right now with all the ups and downs. Please make sure some one helps you with proper meds. Keep bugging people until a doctor helps you.

Rapid cycling can be rough, but it IS controllable, with proper meds.
I only have one clinic in my area.
I don't drive because of my ptsd.
Hopefully things will work out.
Thanks for the support.

lithium,
sereqeul,
zoloft and klonopin.
None of it helps.
I struggle everyday to keep my mind going right.
Now I feel like I am losing the battle.
All I can do is stay hopefull.
My only question is why does this happen to us?
What did we do, Everyone else gets to live happy normal lifestyles.
The worst part is my husband suffers right along with me.
What if he leaves or I lose my kids?
Ihave been stable for so long this is hitting me really bad.
There is no where to turn my pdoc sucks and I can't switch.
People around me just thik I am "CRAZY".
I can only talk here thanks so much for the support.

I know I am a little late to all this, but the Zoloft jumped out of the screen at me. I know in our families case the Zoloft caused rapid cycling. I wonder if it just took you some time for that wonderful part of it to kick in. I say that, because DD had a reaction to a med she had been on for 4 yrs or more, and suddenly it was OD'ing her and she had GAINED size. Anyway, I have read also that most of these meds for mental/emotional/mood disorders can suddenly start causing side affects after taking them for yrs.
There's my two cents,
tk
I haven't had a breakdown in forever five yrs.
My husband is flipping and I just don't know what todo.
I can't go in the hos. unless absolutley nessacary.
I have two kids to take care of and I have to stat strong.
thans for the support.
