eir bills tomorrow.... well i had a pretty bad night last night, and not a terrific day today, and i tell you guys i went down there with my guns loaded I just totally went off on them, asked them where was our ( mine & other people there) money???? and their excuses or "confirmation numbers" weren't gonna get our bills paid or keep our utilities from being shut off i got on my
phone and called everyone in town, i called my city council person, i checked their business license, i called to police-who inform me that's a civil matter for small claims court, and tomorrow at 8am when they open i'm calling the BBB...... I made such a scene, in a dignified way of course, told bf if he didn't hear from me he better meet me there when he got off the freeway from work, and he did, BUT i got our bill paid, i really think they wanted to get me out of there, i took some of their business cards and wrote the phone number for the local better business bureau on them and was telling everyone to call and file a complaint, because that is a bunch of crap, people save all of their money, all the money they have to pay their bills and these people don't pay them???? oh and get this, they can't even tell me where the money is i'm thinking "Gee, that sure is a nice phone you got there mister" well see we take the money and we give it to this other person and they pay the bills WHAT!!!!??? OHHHH NOOOOO i don't think so.....yeah i got my electric bill paid and called the company to verify BEFORE i left that place, but i'm so pissed, what about all those other people??? one lady who only spoke spanish said she was ther for the FOURTH time,for her bills she paid in JUNE, i don't think they'd wanna see me have to go down there 4 times.... one of the the "co-owner's" said they were still trying to work some "kinks" out of a new system.....i told him then why don't you stop taking peoples money until you get your "kinks" worked out, cuz that's just not right at all, he said oh no i can't do that....of course not, cuz then the thief would have much thinner pockets, HMPH@!!!!! when we left my kids told me omg mom you were so mean, and i said yeah right, those so&so's are stealing from people and they can't do that, it's very wrong well at the very least i got our bill taken care of, and i helped a few strangers cuz they all got their bills taken care of while i was there too, lol, bastards, and hopefully i'll be able to stop these peo

I just saw mine on monday, but have wanting to call her the last 2 days to tell her about how much i've been freaking out over things i can't stop thinking about and not being able to relax or sleep, but i dont think it's really an emergency and dont want to be a pest. On the other hand, it's not going to get any better over the rest of the next week, and just from yesterday to today it's gotten dramatically worse. Adde
d to that, I'm also itching and having crying fits what feels like every other minute and am so tired. i try to sit and write, and that lasts a little while, but i can't do it for long, then i try and do something else and it all starts again. i can't make it stop. Jon said if i dont call her that he's going to, but i think he should stay out of it, but then i kind of want him to do it for me because i cant make myself even though maybe i should. I dont want to make her mad and not want to see me anymore as a patient. I've already had to wait a year to even get into therapy. i cant make a decision about what to make for lunch, let alone something important.calling tdoc bef apptcalling tdoc bef apptMessage #1: calling tdoc bef appt Posted by: hope7951 Date: Jul 29, 2009.It depends on what outcome you are looking for.

She told me on monday that if i decided that's what i thought i needed that she would do it.

That's why I participated inthe Johns Hopkins Bipolar Genetics Study in 2007 to try and pinpointthe gene cluster. It also means it is an illness that is 70% physical and only 30% environemental. Identical twin studies show that 70% will develop the illness so there is 30% that is environmental that can make a difference. I think it is especially important to know you history also becuase those of us who come from bipolar families may have alsobeen ex
posed to bazaree behavior and traumatic evnets that other children don't have to deal with from day one. These actually are the things you need to think about to separate you from your illness, family and physical illness - all of which are not only not you but have nothing to do with you and are not under your control, fault, guilt or blame. That's important to fully understand. 10 years ago the true genetic physical nature of this illness was not understood. You are not your illness. JoyeFamily History (triggers)Message #3: Family History (triggers) Posted by: bpcookie Date: Jul 30, 2009.Hi Michelle sweetie pie. Its hard to find mental illness in my family history. I dont know my mothers side of the family too well. I dont believe my mother has any problems with mental illness. I do know that my sister has problems with depression, but thats about all I know. On my mothe
rs side of the family there is a few alcoholics. Its extra hard to trace anything on my fathers side since he was adopted, he has NO records at all. But he is an alcoholic. My grandfather had diebetes, so that would explain my hypoglysemia. Get this, on my step mothers side of the family, they are totally disfunctional. Im so glad that Im not related to them by blood. They have some major problems. My aunt divorced her husband and married her brother in-law. One cousin married another cousin and my step brother married his step sister. Now that is totally messed up. eeeeekkkk. big hugs and muahs to you dahling CookieFamily History (triggers)Message #4: Family History (triggers) Posted by: hereinmyhead Date: Jul 30, 2009.I can go back a long ways with family history, but with mine, there were many that were just called things like "insane" or "mad" bec
ause labels like "bipolar" didn't exist yet. On my dad's side, both his parents had a mental illness and at least 2 of his uncles that I know of. 2 of my cousins on that side commit suicide and 2 other of my uncles. There were lots of people who just "vanished" that nobody knows what happened to. Going back even farther, I have seen old census records where family members are listed where there has been family members listed and at least one is checked as being "insane". Some even older family bible records and published histories that are in books and even older records of deaths will label somebody as being "mad". This goes back over 200 years in this country and even further if I trace it back to European ancestors. This continues throughout my father's direct lines. Lots of mental illness and suicide.Family History (triggers)Message #5: Family History (triggers) Poste

If you do this for whatever time is between appointments, both you and your pdoc/tdoc can be on the same page and see trends as to what is going on. There are free forms for this on the interenet if you google mood charts. B
asically if you write down what meds you take as you take them, anything special that happens to you during the day and your mood on a 1-10 scale plus anything out of the ordinary like your period, alcohol consumption, major stressors, illness, injury, etc. If you do this, you'll find it wil help alot.

He won't even hear of it when I have mentioned it in the past (Long ago as that didn't go over well) and _base_d on court order from two separate incidences has met with two different pyschologists - WHO DID NOT HELP or diagnose him. The last psychologist asked him what his parents were like and according to my brother told him he is a victim of the perfect storm (my dad being an engineer and my mom being a perfectionist)...what the hell is that????? I am verging on desperate as he is becoming more and more physically abusi
ve to my parents during his mania (last episode was last week Sunday and thankfully my mom told me) but they are scared and don't want to 'ruin his life' by getting the authorities involved. I am 2.5 hours away and don't have any idea how to help him understand that he could feel and be so much better if he took ownership of this disease...there are so many dynamics that I could type for hours - I don't know where to turn first - can someone help or guide me?

sted by: 8inthehed Date: Aug 1, 2009.No matter how hard I try, I sometimes have trouble having an orgasm. I don't know if it's my meds. or something else. It only takes hubby about 5 min or so to get his, and I'm left stranded. He tries foreplay and other stuff to get me close to that point, but honestly it doesn't. It's like it's numb down there. Talking about sex is not something I am very comfortable with, especially trying to tell him what to do during..Iknow..bad. The whole thing makes me uncomfortable. Would therapy maybe help? or should I try different meds? or just live with it.Can't enjoy it (may trigger)Can't enjoy it (may trigger)Message #1: Can't enjoy it (may trigger) Posted by: minkysmom1 Date: Aug 1, 2009.Hi there, There are types of meds that definitely impact the libido in a huge way. Whether you
are on one or not I don't know since you don't mention kinds of meds you are taking. The SSRI meds (antidep.) can do it but everyone is different. I experienced what you speak of for years til my meds got worked out. As far as "talking about sex" try not to look at it that way. So much is put upon "talking about sex" that we avoid it at all costs when really it's no big deal to talk about it. I mean were having sex right?So we should be talking about it with our SO's. Your husband knows you are not orgasming so why not intimately chat with him. Don't just settle or "live with it",that's your husband and he wants you to be happy and in a fulfilling lovelife with him.He Loves you and will ebrace you letting him know what is happening.
As for a med change make an appt. and do it soon. There are meds that don't always have that effect on people. Ask your Doc..Tell him exactly what is happening. I know it's embarrasing but it will get easier. Remember,you are going to be treating this disease for a long time,why not get it right and start enjoying the love life you deserve and your husband wants you to have. Regards,MinkyCan't enjoy it (may trigger)Message #2: Can't enjoy it (may trigger) Posted by: bpcookie Date: Aug 1, 2009.8inthehed, oh sweetie, Ive been there before. Its prob. your darn meds. Are you on an anti depressant? Here is what happened to me. I had a very healthy sex drive before I got on Bipolar meds. I was put on Depakote and an anti depressant and my sex drive went down hill. Orgasms were a thing of the pasts. 8 yrs of hating sex. Then I was taken off
the anti depressant and I got totally hyper sexual, I went the other way, I couldnt get enough. Then once again the Dr. put me on an anti depressant and it brought my sex drive down a bit, and I finally feel normal. Its most likely caused by your meds. Talk to your pdoc and dont take any crap from him. All my pdocs kept telling me was "yes, bipolar meds can cause prob. with your sex life" they acted like it was no big deal. There are other meds you can try. Have your pdoc switch meds untill your orgasms come back. Dont let your dr. tell you that you have to suffer, because that is total b.s. If it was your dr. going through this, you better believe he wouldnt suffer. So put your foot down honey, kick the pdoc in the rear and have your meds switched up untill you find the right ones to help your bipolar and bring your orgasms back. hugs CookieCan't enjoy it (may trigger)Message #3: Can't enjoy it (may trigger) Posted by: bpcookie Date: Aug 1, 2009.Oh I wanted to add, maybe untill you get this sexual issue delt with, you can get yourself a toy (if you know what I mean) Have your husband use it on you and see if that helps.
