Guest guest Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 Vicki, Thank goodness your BP has been diagnosed. not knowing is much worse than knowing because when one doesn't know, one thinks one is going crazy! As for your son, all teenagers do dumb things; it's sort of a requirement for being that age. I have a PhD in stupid things done while a teenager! I think there is something in the air -- almost everyone I know had been having a rough couple of months. Hang in there and know that things will get better. I hear smacking your kids helps.

Guest guest Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 Vicki, Good for you, getting help. Now, don't worry about the brat. My son the police officer got caught shop-lifting when he was about ten years old. I cried. Look at him now. I am so proud. Marta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 I was diagnosed as bi-polar last September. I have fought with depression since Jr-high, no one ever said their might be anything else to it all. I had just accepted the fact that I was crazy and people would have to deal with it!. Last Summer I was showing some very bad symptoms (The crazy had gone beyond the acceptable)and I took myself to mental health. So I have been on Prozac and Neourontin since Sept. I have to say this is the best I can ever remember feeling! Dr K. okayed my sugery knowing all that and I've done really well. Let me know if you have any questions!

Guest guest Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 yea- I guess kids do test us and themselves but I cannot believe he would do this. is a CO. He hears stories. Kinda blew me away but if it werent for the other parent blaming my son and thinking hers is a victim instead of just as guilty, it may be easier. I hate parents like that. They think their kids can do no wrong and then they end up like Dalmer. So was that the only time he did it? DId he learn his lesson after that? mjs93311 wrote: Vicki, Good for you, getting help.

Guest guest Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 thank you deidra. I was on Effexor for years but didnt really help. Its not for Bi polar so why would it. This is the first time ive ever been to an actual psychiatrist instead of a counselor so he was able to really diagnose. I look forward to feeling as good as you and Im happy that you have been feeling good. Hugs- Vicki Deidra wrote: I was diagnosed as bi-polar last September.

Guest guest Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 Yes, but we moved to a different state and got away from those bad kids. I don't know what would have happened otherwise. I ordered him away from those kids between the incident and when we moved. Marta > So was that the only time he did it? DId he learn his lesson after that?

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 Vicki, I do not take any of these meds, but yeah for being proactive about your situation. Sorry you lost Jakey. Always hard to adjust, but it gets better with time. I will never forget when we had to have (mixed black lab/samoyed). He had such a unique personality of any animal we ever had ! I will pray your new meds get adjust and all is well. Sorry I have not been around, been busy being lazy and healing from plastics. I am finally getting some energy back, but so much I have not read on the board ! Thought I would pop in for a few this a.m. ...
