Well That Was A Depressing 3 Months...Literally

So I finally find a phyciatrist (I don't know how to spell it and i don't feel like looking it up) and he tries taking me off my medication that i have been on for about 8 years for my bipolar. Well the first one he put me on for anti-anxiety made my legs move constantly. I kept crossing and uncrossing them and they just kept shaking. I don't know why and i don't even remember the name of the pill. All I remember that you put it under your tongue and it tasted horrible too. But i must say that was the worst experience since finding out i was bipolar and started taking meds for it.

Next he put me on something else that did absolutely nothing...which means i have been literally in bed for the past 3 months. Just getting up to go to the bathroom and take a shower was a huge huge chore. The crying spells were the worst ever.  Oh and being in this depressive state makes me not want to do anything...like take any meds for anything (I don't know why). So needless to say my diabetes is all out of whack (not that it has been under any kind of control anyway).

New Year, new phyciatrist, YaY! It just so happened that he left and a new phyciatrist was hired YaY! I saw her for the first time last week. She has since put me back on my anti-depressant (which he didn't even have me on an anti-depressant)! And she gave me refills for my anti-anxiety pill (that i refused to give up, but i didn't have any more refills and the old phyciatrist didn't want me on for some odd reason). The one that i am on allows the voices to stop via sleep. I can not fall asleep without it. Trust me it is awful when i am not on it. I have been on the anti-depressant for 4 days and I as sooooooo feeling the difference! I am up early cleaning the house or doing whatever. Like writing new posts on my blog lol.
