I need to start getting out and doing things. I want to, but being home just feels so much safer.

[Babus Polarus @BabusPolarus]

That just reminded me, it'll be a year tomorrow that I had my break with reality that lasted 3 days...seems like yesterday almost.

[Babus Polarus @BabusPolarus]

When will this fatigue go away? I almost wish for a mania so I wouldn't be so tired. Too bad about that pesky psychotic episode last year.

[Babus Polarus @BabusPolarus]

It's not even 6am, and between the kids and the cat, I'm already running around like a chicken with it's head cut off. What gives???

[Babus Polarus @BabusPolarus]

I'm so uninspired I can't come up with a decent tweet, let alone blog!

[Babus Polarus @BabusPolarus]

Sitting here, bored out of my skull. But I'm still sitting here, so that's something positive, I think.

[Babus Polarus @BabusPolarus]

Pushing through...

[Babus Polarus @BabusPolarus]

Struggling with that sinking feeling of despair. I hate this playing with my meds. I think we should have stayed with that 'not sad' state.

[Babus Polarus @BabusPolarus]

Counting the days until winter is over. We're 1/3 of the way there...

[Babus Polarus @BabusPolarus]

Changing to Cymbalta and weaning off the Zoloft. Hope it makes the drowsiness go away.

[Babus Polarus @BabusPolarus]

Still waking up at 4am consistently. Dr. thinks it's still lingering depression. I think it sucks.

[Babus Polarus @BabusPolarus]

Thinking about buying a bird.

[Babus Polarus @BabusPolarus]

Up way too early and too lazy to make coffee. You'd think the person responsible for waking you up would be responsible for making coffee.

[Babus Polarus @BabusPolarus]

@daffodil1979 Thanks, hon. I'm thinking 30 days @ this dose is not enough time. I should wait before changing.

[Babus Polarus @BabusPolarus]

How much time should you give a medication to work before giving up on it and moving on to something else? #bipolar

[Babus Polarus @BabusPolarus]

@Acrimonia I didn't know they had a forum! TY!

[Babus Polarus @BabusPolarus]

@Acrimonia There wasn't a lot of info on CrazyMeds about it. I've heard nothing on it. Side effects can include high cholesterol...WTF???

[Babus Polarus @BabusPolarus]

@Acrimonia Thanks for giving me your insight.

[Babus Polarus @BabusPolarus]

@Acrimonia Been to Crazy Meds :D Favorite site. Wanted a first hand opinion. I'm really on the fence. I have until next Friday to decide.

[Babus Polarus @BabusPolarus]

@Acrimonia On the otherhand, I'm tired of being this low. I just know that if I gain weight that will keep me depressed.
