Hey Ezza
hang in there, m8t. Sorry 2 hear u have not been so good. Had it a bit bad myself l8tly, D real bad 4 quite some time.
Just a little advice, listen 2 tha docs m8. U may think u got it all covered but they do know wat they talkin bout.
I hope bi-polar is not wat u have cos it is not as easy as ppl with dep think. I had one lady say 2 me once, 'at least u get tha priveledges of tha highs' but she did not realise tha highs are not so good, aka doin weird stuff, givin all ur stuff away, goin bankrupt, thinkin ur invincible....
Sweet, I have lived wit this 4 alot of years n if u need sum1 2 talk 2, I am available. Not doin so good right now as said b4, but here, ok?
Take care
J

Ezza,
Long time since I was on here, but I'm very happy to see that there might be some answers for you.
A diagnosis is a powerful tool in managing any illness, including mental health.
Take care,

Ezza

you seem to be going through a bit of a patch.. but it seems to be clearing up about the diagnosis... hope the eeg gives you a clear indication for you...

Thank you for your comments on my diary... I appreciate them....

take care... it is good to see you have found some positives in being in hospital... i coped well with the food too... hated being so bored though... i do not talk much to other people in places...
