How am I doing? Well you know what....fantastically!! I would love to discuss more but I am busy!!!
I really want to try and get Blue Elephant Awareness amongst Canadian Employers and try and get them on board with hiring people with Mental Illnesses that are taking their meds and getting appropriate counselling to enable them to do a satisfactory job and make them feel good and give them a sense of accomplishment so they too can lead fulfilling lives.
Any Ideas????

I am going to take Dialectical Behavior Therapy
This is a year course. The first part is a Core Mindfulness Module. Anyone know much about this type of therapy?
Playing around with Meds and the fun that entails!!!
G'day all, Brrrr. It's a little chilly here this day. I am wishing I had one of those Snuggies as seen on T.V. and sold at every fine Walmart right in that 4 ft "buy me" section at your point of purchase. My Boyfriend was going to buy me one, but I told him to wait until Christmas. So, Any ways...
I initially diagnosed my self in April with PMDD (look it up). I mentioned to my Dr. that I should maybe try Flueoxatine (spelling probably wrong), my Dr. agreed. We started on 20mg then increased to 40mg. It was doing o.k. If I were a glass I would be 3/4 full is how I describe it. However, with the psychosis I was displaying just recently was not treated with this medicine. So, I take this no more; I was weaned off of it. Then I was getting pumped up with Seroquel, well let me tell you my dear readers. That stuff was making me mad, literally and figuratively speaking. I was enraged with life, I disliked the feeling very much. A co-crazy of mine who is schizophrenic was also administered this drug and started hallucinating. We vote SEROQUEL is VERY BAD!! mmmmm kay. (Ha ha that episode of South Park when DRUGS ARE BAD MMM KAY)
The cocktail I am currently being tested on is this:
5mg of Cipralex in the Morning
500mg of Divalproex in the Morning
0.5mg of Risperidone in the Morning, Noon, and Night
then
750 mg of Divalproex at Bedtime
50mg Quetiapine at Bedtime
Yeah, I think that is it.
So far, So Great. But, hmmm how long is a med test period....Anyone can answer this???

I am not bipolar nor am I ADHD!!!!
He did not specifically diagnose those he suspected. We are pretty determined its Post Traumatic Stress Disorder on account of my childhood, which I will tell more about!.
Wow!! I have found out more about the Mental Illness I have. Borderline Personality Disorder
Alrighty...Is Borderline Personality Disorder real or made up???
Well I guess the reason no one has really done a huge deal to assess me... my readers (non of those"who follow") lol. Is due to it never being diagnosed in any one under the age of 18 years old.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borderline_personality_disorder
By the time I was 18 I was entering my first Rehab for Drinking because I was/am an alcoholic?
And, you know fair enough on my families part. I was the biggest partier ever... I love to drink and did it awfully and of-fell lot!!! Alcoholism is in our Family on both sides of my parents genetics. Sending me to rehab made perfect sense Alcoholics are referred to as crazy which I am and was. I won't admit to being an alcoholic because I don't drink (any more/very often) and it's not difficult for me when I understand more and more about being chemically imbalanced. I am a horrible drinker regardless!!
Okie dokie I am Accepting of the fact I was pressured so much for drinking and any help offered to me was for drinking because I am sure it contributed to the wisdom I currently posses or the insight I have into myself. However, I am NOT ACCEPTING that I was hospitalized in 1990 so I was 17 years old and the mother fucking, retard of a shrink simply said she's a spoiled brat!!! Freaking Peel Memorial Hospital.
Ha ha I called 411 the other day to get the number to the hospital and when I was talking to whoever IO was like you are the hospital on Center Street Right? and she's like now we haven't been on the street for like 6 years. Like I know?? Ha ha.
So that dude was negligent with in the parameters of being so. I believe however I can change this for others.
My very good friend has a daughter who no one would help with the mental illness she was suffering with and they still aren't.
I want to Change this. I WANT TO CREATE AWARENESS IN YOUNG ADULTS AND STOP THIS SUFFERING!!!!!
