Wednesday...

I am sitting here at work, completely bored. Terrible, isn't it? I'm all caught up on my desk and the busywork is in light supply. What to do? What to do?

So, I mentioned that I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder back in April 2006. I was 36 years old at the time I was diagnosed. Let me just say its been one heck of a roller coaster ride too. Just ask my husband, he'll tell you lots of horror stories.

Luckily though, we are finally at a good combination of meds. I am currently on Abilify (5 mg), Prozac (40 mg), and Welbutrin XL (300 mg). The Abilify is probably the worst. I have gained nearly 30 pounds since I started taking it. Even with working out, I have slowed the weight gain down, but it has not ceased. I hate being overweight. Yet, at the same time, I do not dare mess with my combination of medications.

Duty calls. Back to the grindstone.

Welcome Back

Welcome back to A Peek Inside My Mind.

First of all, I would like to thank you for stopping by. My name is Denise and I will be your hostess. So sit back, kick your feet up, and enjoy your stay.

I'd like to start out by stating that I am a woman who is living with bipolar disorder. I was first diagnosed and treated with it in April 2006. I can FINALLY say that I am now enjoying life. I am enjoying life with my husband and children. I am enjoying my life at work. Life seems so much better now that I am finally being treated.

I hope to give you a peek inside of my mind... share my thoughts... share my joys and sorrows.
Perhaps I will even share a few quirky things as well.

I hope that you will continue to visit me and my little space in cyberspace. Until next time.....
