[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 561188, member: 1514"] Jo...could it be something completely other than bipolar? Could she have fibro or chronic fatigue? You have always described her as your sleeper. Does she have pain anywhere? Not in her joints but anywhere. Im wondering about trying her on something that isnt so much a true mood stabilizer but close like neurontin or even topamax. I know people have the shudders over topamax but it has been a true lifesaver for me. Or maybe she needs a small dose of something like provogil I think its called. Yes the sleeping and the not showering can be a sign of depression but it can also be a sign of fibro and chronic fatigue and pain. I do the same thing when I am just so deep in one of my fibro bouts and I cant even stand to have water touch me. It hurts to even move. I dont want to go anywhere or do anything. The fibro makes me depressed and the depression makes the fibro worse. Its a never ending circle. Then of course there could be other medical conditions like thyroid or diabetes too. [/QUOTE]
