I've just come off a depressive cycle and have had about a week of baseline. Where I go next only time will tell. I must confess I'm weary of meds. It's so endless and such a drudgery.
My 8 y/o went to Colorado with her grandparents on a trip. The grandparents are preparing for a move out there and thought this would be a good way to spend some time with her while they look for housing. She due to be back on Friday. I miss her.
Meanwhile my other two children, especially the youngest, are keeping me busy. Every 5 minutes she's into something. I can't get her to sit even to watch TV. *sigh*
Even with all that's rough right now, it's not effecting my mood--at least for now.
I'm going to try a new diet--Relacore. It targets the stress hormone and if I understand my bipolar theorums correctly, Relacore should help with mood. It definitely helps with energy and motivation. I was able to get more housework done yesterday than I've been able to do all week (which was none).
Well I'd best get off here. There's a storm brewing.
Take care,
Tallyn


Tallyn,
It is good to hear your depression has lifted. I hope you continue to feel better. Let us know how this new diet goes. I know I need more energy. Some days I am so drained. I am sure it is a combination of the bipoar and lupus. I really appreciate those days when I am productive and motivated. I just wish I had more of them.
Sounds like you have your hands full with your kids. Maybe when your 8yo comes back she can help you with the younger ones. My cousin just moved to Colorado. His wife is a general manager of Starbucks and they moved there from Florida for her job.
Keep posting and let us know how things are going.
