Who's reading hellboundmercinary (14):
I have the house to myself right now.  It's quite wonderful actually.  I love my mother.  Don't get me wrong at all.  I just needed a break.  I think that she did too judging by how she was snapping at me again yesterday.
 
I notice that the voices haven't been that bad during the past few days.  I think that's so freaking cool.  I needed a break from them too.  So far since I have woken up I have a clear mind and even the birds are speaking bird instead of english.  The dogs bark dog again.  It's wonderful.  I feel normal right now.  I hope that it lasts a while.  It's wierd how this is happening right before I was going to tell my doctor that I wanted a change in my antipsychotic medicine.  I just took my antidepressants.  Anyway, the change is good.  I hope that it stays that way.  I'm also kind of glad that I didn't try and kill myself last night.  I have to remember that homelessness would only be temporary.  I also have to remember that the voices cleared up for the most part and started to blow up again already on this same dosage of medicine.  I have to be careful of my stress levels.
 
I opened up a bank account with a check I got for Christmas.  There's a hold on the check.  The funds should become available to me while my father is down here.  I couldn't ask for more perfect timing.  The account will be there in case I am approved for Social Security or if I'm forced to go back to work with my illness.  Either way, it's all good.  Maybe if the voices stay at a minimum this time, I can actually go back to work without an issue.  I don't know.  We'll see.

    I wish you luck, hellboundmercinary!

    I have found my rhythm again in posting regularly in SC, and I hope to be able to stop by your blogs regularly when the time allows.

    I am diagnosed as bipolar, and I am using SoulCast in pro-actively dealing with my affliction.

    All the best!

    Hi there hellbound.  I'm glad things are getting a little more on an even keal for you.  My husband had voices in his head for quite some time but never told anyone until they became quite bad.  He eventually let on to me and the doctor when they became, as he described it, like the Devil telling him to kill me and then himself.  He had thought of suicide with his depression before but had always thought of me, then not taken his life.  Now it was serious as, if he killed me then he could get on with killing himself couldn't he?  Well, we are very lucky as our doctor has specialist training in mental health.  My hubby was put on a medication that I had known about as I work for a mental health team.  There are virtually no side effects and was originally just for people with Schizophrenia but now they know it works on what is termed as Positive thoughts.  This doesn't mean positive as in good LOL as you can imagine.  It means positive as in they seem real as real can be for the person hearing the voices.  The drug is called Olanzepine and has been fantastic for my hubby.  I know that UK and US and European drugs differ in name but often have the same ingredients.  It may be worth you asking your doctor about it?

    Anyway, you enjoy a few days by yourself.  We all need time to ourselves now and again.  You know you can almost physically feel the change in you :)  The positive shines through from the page.  I'm really pleased for you.

    Take care

    Hi there PAPER :)  Hey - us bipolar chicks rock!

    Thank you for your support, both of you.  Bipolar was part of my first diagnosis.  My latest is Schizophrenic.  I've been diagnosed with Bipolar axis 1 with borderline personality disorder, Bipolar axis 1, Schizoaffective and Bipolar, Mood disorder nos w/ Psychotic disorder nos, and Schizophrenic all at different times.  I guess I got worse over the years.  It's too bad that I didn't tell the judge that at my hearing.  I blamed myself for my behavior in 1997 causing it to get worse.  The suicide attempts made it worse as well.  Oh well, I still breathe.  That's what counts.

    You will end up alone if you don't stop talking to SATAN, Hbm.

    [makes a Victory sign, and nods to PC] :) :D

    I hope to be able to be able to show support in the small way I can, hellbound.  I have been helped in many ways too, here in SC. My wish is to give it back if not to the friend, who have helped me at least to someone else who might be needing it.

    And the cycle would go on..
