Hey Katia--
I'm sorry you have a cold! That really sucks, esp. when you can't "call in". I know you wait tables, and when you don't work, you don't make $. Sometimes, I kinda like being sick, as long as it's not miserable. Then I get to lay around with nobody bothering me, watching made for TV movies. But having mood episodes AND being physically sick--well THAT sucks. Esp. if you are trying to get over BOTH!!
You know, I feel better. I just do. I don't feel all haywire with racing thoughts. But I'm not dragging myself out of bed, crying and thinking about how other people must hate me, and I hate me, etc... I feel like maybe Lamictal and Trileptal were just waiting to be buddies in my brain. I've never really heard anyone else talk about the combo--maybe it's not that common. But it's working so far. I feel like I did 2 years ago before all of the BP crap hit the fan. I hope I'm not writing in two weeks from now in tears, searching for a new combo...(hope! hope!)
I'm giving it at least a month. If at the end of a month I'm feeling stable, then I can somewhat confidently say that I may have found THE combo..TA-DAH!
Are you still titrating on the Lamictal? Does it make you feel jittery or anything? Tell me how you're doing.
take care,
Katy
