About Me: Female, 41, IL, member since Jul 2008
I am 41 years old and have a BP Dx since I was 27. I am divorced with no children.  I work full-time and have been stable on meds for the past 3 years.  I've been hospitalized many times-especially for manias.  Depression has been a big problem the past few months and I ... [More] lost my father last Fall.  I don't have any other family, and just a couple of friends, so I'm kind of lonely.  But I don't walk around all mopey-and I'm quick to laugh, and enjoy being nice to people.  I'm glad to have found this site, it's helped me with my charting and I could use the support.

Interests: I love to laugh, I enjoy reading, going to clubs, foreign movies, being with my cats, eating out, Exercise and weight loss, Hanging out with frien

Had to send you a big smile.I see you have went out and worked out.That is great.My daughter always told me that she had more energy when she exercised.The sleeping thing could be from lack of vitamins.Maybe you should try a good multi-vitamin.I have been sleeping a lot too.I have been on constant pain meds,muscle relaxers,antiflamatory,even med for restless leg syndrome, besides my psyc meds.My injections in my back has worn off and I am in pain land.Been in bed for about 3 days. I go back to dr 16th, but I may call and see if they can do the injections earlier. Got up for a while tonite, so thought I'd check out how everyone is doing here. Take care,and keep up the good work. RJ

Pleased to see your mood is good but sorry your still sleeping so much. I put it down to the season, sometimes I sleep because i'm depressed but sometimes I sleep just because... have you had your bloods checked recently, just to be sure its not anaemia etc? Take care.xx

Thinking about You.I see your mood says still sleepin.That's ok.If you need it,do it.I hav been the same way lately.As long as you are doing well in other areas,don't worry about it.Just take it easy.Life here is in a real uproar and I am more out of whack than usual.I shopped and shopped for Christmas and now I just don't care about the tree or anything.I had my son put in the hospital for psyc care.It is a long story and a bad one.He just hit the max of what he could handle.I hope you are in the Christmas Spirit.I imagine it is very enlightening with the children at this time of the year. I was going to one store and saw the traffic.I went home instead.Places are mobbed,but the people I have seen have been very nice,not like I have seen in the past years.Take care,have fun & kep n tuch.

Hi, so far its alright, not going to be a big Christmas for us this year, since we (my family) are all on tight budget. So what we are doing is a secret santa, meaning I'm only getting one gift for one person. It's strange because I'm so used to overspending on my family and friends but this year I'm trying to conrol that, last year I spent over $800.00 on gifts for famiy and friends. went a bit overboard last year lol. It's hard not to spend too much money tho. But kinda depressing because I know I don't have any money to spend. It just a reminder of how lame and useless my life is. Yah I've been so tired lately too, not sure why, may be the new meds im on, who knows. but it also could be cuz my dog has taken to waking me up at 6am every morning lately. hope ya have a great hoilday
