Hombre,
I never saw this post before. It's addressed to me? My it's been just awful, but I don't know how I missed your kind post. Thanks!
I did try MM ingested. It wasn't successful for me, and I was trying to avoid all the stuff thrown at me--cymbalta, lyrica.
(I couldn't tolerate seroquel, either.)
I'm here on this board trying to reach back into some of my old TCM stuff and learn about herbal support. While I think about my next possible med ramp-up :-/
Thank you so much!

> Have you tried an AAP like Seroquel to calm the anxiety and agitation? Like a low dose? I'm thinking with something to clamp down the anxiety and hypomania type symptoms, you could be more aggressive about using energizing meds.
>
> Have you tried smoking/vaporizing/eating marijuana for pain relief and antidepressive effects? That one can go either way, but worth a try. I read an interesting article about how a mother gives her son pot cookies for his autism. Not the same thing, but marijuana doesn't have to be seen as some crazy therapy or without therapeutic effects.

> Chronic use is fraught with difficulties as well, but we're just trying to get you out of bed and functional, right?
