I just can't take it anymore

[james217]

While Depakote is a medication often prescribed for seizures it is also a med prescribed for bipolar disorder. I know that because my sister was on that med for years for the treatment of her bipolar disorder.

When I was diagnosed with my panic disorder I was prescribed Klonopin which was prescribed for me to take in the midst of an anxiety/panic attack.

Nothing you can do if she is not taking her meds. I guess I am wondering what you are doing to hold it all together? Aside from your medical posts everything is about your W. What are you doing to rebuild your life?

just take it easy. Exercise. Sort through documents. Not eat so much junk. My blood sugar has been pretty good lately.

pretty much taking it easy. Trying to talk to people ot get this surgery and all these other appointments taken care of.

And mainly thinking and praying. Just doing different things. Trying to make my life better. As you can see I don't post near as much.

and yep I know. But if I had known earlier I could have done something. I thought she was being over medicated because I had asked the doctor what it was for.

Yea I know depakote is used for that too. That's why I didn't think anything of it. I know she was "better" on valproic acid. But I didn't see the warning signs or truly understand the klonopin and the celexa..

Now I do. It was to keep her evened out. The thing is she thinks she's "fine." Mutual friend and I and family don't think so. She can hide it from her family though although I suspect they know something but just don't do anything about it.

All signs point to her being epileptic and hypomanic. I asked. I feel like I failed. I should have done more to help her when I had the chance.

I may have lost her forever. I don't think it's any coming back because she's in worst shape than she was last year even with the job.

I think I've been doing pretty good. I'm not a basket case. I'm not crying alot anymore. I'm still depressed and experiencing highs and lows. And I want to get these operations and procedures over with.

I'm going to look for another disability lawyer as well. just thinks i'm doing to keep myself busy
