[QUOTE="serenityprayer, post: 318951, member: 8421"] I was directed here by a wonderful friend after my 9yr old sons recent diagnosis of Bipolar. Years ago he was diagnosis'ed as severe ADHD with anxiety disorder. After a year of therapy and natural supp's he has only gotten worse. He suffers from night terrors, rages, seperation anxiety, lying, mania and depression...he is ultra rapid cycling. He is taking risperdal 2mg per day and we are far from getting him stabilized yet. He has been symptomatic since the day of birth and after diagnosis and educating myself on early onset childhood bipolar disorder..I was thrilled to finally get an answer. My husband is also bipolar but will not get treatment at the moment...although I think we are on the verge of him getting help. Daily life at my house can be like a hurricane or tornado of difficulties. I have Crohn's disease, inflammatory neuropathic disease and bi-lateral trigeminal neuralgia....so I am on a lot of medication. My 11 year old daughter is the only one dealing with no medical problems :winking: I am thankful she has been spared! I am learning cake decorating as a beautiful distraction and I rely on the Lord each day for strength, peace and patience. Through all of the difficulties...I am certainly blessed and full of joy and hope! At the moment I am dealing with my own anxiety due to the bipolar rages from my son which have been horrible after a few recent triggers from his birthday and my husband's unstable moods. I am thankful I can now see our family with clear vision...before I kept trying to figure it all out. I do feel isolated because not many can understand bipolar and chronic illness. I am thankful to find all of you...and thankful for my friend here who has been so empathetic & amazing. I find comfort in the posts here..I am so wiped out from all of it. God bless u all [/QUOTE]
