My doctor actually suggested I might have a minor case of bipolar disorder and I'm going to be experimenting with some medication-starting with Adderall actually. Mainly because in the past the down weeks were so bad-that I stopped caring about the formalities of employment and he thinks this will help both stabilize mood and stay on top of things. I don't know how keen I am on taking amphetamines every day but its fairly low dosage so well see. To note, the swings have gotten much closer together and much less severe with sub use, perhaps something to do with brain synchronization.
Mmm... I know I'm late to say this, but I didn't read it before. If I were you, I would try Bach's Rescue Remedy. I feel it's better than medication for mood/emotional symptoms, in my own taste. But better than all of that is facing it and transcending.
thanks for the advice-while adderall is an amphetamine with long term (as in YEARS) potential dopaminergic neurotoxic effects..I have consistently felt amazing on, much more capable of fulfilling my potential, and accomplish so much writing and work wise it is hard to give up, nor do I think its necessary right now. I am being monitored consistently with blood work and find with a healthy diet, good sleep, and proper natural supplementation in terms of precursors to replenish dopamine and antioxidants for brain-I feel very calm and stable on it.
I have made two medical mistakes on it-in terms of one time taking L-tyrosine with it instead of before bed, and one time taking magnesium (magnesium increase bio-availability of adderall to close for comfort) and b-vitatmins and choline when I thought it was bed time but forgot the second extended release dosage was coming through-in the first case I felt like divine god genius and the second-there were no thoughts at all..lol interesting experiences but will not be making those mistakes again. Nobody warned me of these things-I found out only after the facts lol
