Hi Karen,
Glad to hear you got rid of the headache and are doing well.
I'm definately bipolar, and am trying to figure out if I have ADD. Everyone except one sister and my father has ADHD in my family. But from what I've been reading lately, bipolar people have many of the same symptoms as ADHD people, and I have even read that they often respond to stimulants in the similar fashion. I imagine if I don't have ADHD, I am certainly on the continum towards having it. Although the lithium seems to be working somewhat, I still cannot do a+b+c=d kind of stuff, am still impulsive and kind of hyper. I believe stimulants can prevent manias for bipolar people, they do with me. I did read that article (296, 314) and found it really informative Karen. thanks.
I REALLY appreciated your posting this morning. Thanks Karen. I wrote one back to him, but am unsure if I should have. As far as I could tell, he was taking his rage at the system out on me. No, I definately didn't take it personally. Thanks again though--it did kind of shock me.
Anyway we will miss you. I really miss my computer when I go away.
A lady named tina was interested in career counselling. Do you have the URL to your husband's grandfather's site? I really like the way they test people's skills.
Take care Karen B, Janice
