i don't think you are bi-polar. you are too healthy looking and have good breeding. those pills are ruining society from the inside out.

@Tiahur76 I can assure you I am Bipolar and looking healthy has nothing to to with it. As for breading Bipolar disorder has run through my family for decades. With the help of Tegretol I am now in a stable relationship... looking forward to getting married and I can make proper decisions about life. Before my mind was so muddled with thoughts I couldn't make any decisions so just went on whims. I am also learning to deal with stress, which was impossible before.

I'm bipolar and when everything else failed, I turned to exercise, which led me to nutrition... anyway. i was bad, now i'm in college, and in great physical shape, and i owe it all to God. :P If you want to know more. message me.

Hey. I talk to myself. Sometimes my voice creeps in and when I am posting statuses to FB, I argue with myself. Its embarrassing. NO it isnt? why must you always reject me? Shut up! this is MY time and I dont want to hear from you right now! Whatever, bitch, just be that way. I WILL. you have issues, dude. NO I DONT! Yes, you do. Youre talking to yourself. Of course i am talking to myself, who else can I trust? Me, of course@! I cant trust you, no. Thats a shame, cuz i would help you alot.

@neirfane Hi, I am glad that you got over it with God. Nothing is impossible to Him. Let us submit ourselves to God in prayer, this world would be much better. Thanks for your post. Happy n blessed 2012

your hot call me.

wow thank you for sharing! the only mood stabilizer ive tried is abilify and it ended up with me in the psych ward.. so i was sorta nervous today when i was prescribed tegretol. it really helped you mentioned your negative side effects with lithium, because that was one of the other meds we discussed me trying. i also have a underactive thyroid... anyway, dont know how it ended up with you, but its at least comforting for me taking it on my first day :)

@shoegalsho2 I know a better cure for bipolarism... Ever tried psilocybin mushrooms? I am not kidding.. Look into it. Look at my channel description regarding this issue and watch my series called "cures to the world" found on my channel. It may have you think twice. Be love.

@neirfane You are lucky.

[shoegalsho2]

@calogerods Its not that great for depression... better for mania...

[shoegalsho2]

@smpwast3d It also meant me trying to end my life at least ten times a year so I needed meds. Two years on I've never been better.
