Well i joined up a while ago but have been a voyer(sp?) Well were to start.
Been in the SYSTEM for three years now am currently in some kind of remission ( my therapist thinks I mighty be bi polar) but anyway very happy ( and I admit implusive, bvought a puppy today :-) ) HAve recentlyb split from my wife "Iam tired of being a nurse/mother figure". I have the most amazing 6 year old (who bears the pressure of keeping me here in really bad times, thoght he doesnt know it). I live in New zealand so summers coming (great nice weather, stink have to cover the scars on the wrists) and am drinking , thought I know its no good for me and it means there will be no sleep tonite ( one of the inbteractions with my meds)
Im on seroquel 200mg cipramil 60 mg and colanzapam 2mg nightly ( have been for the past 2 1/2 years). I have an appointment with my Psych Doc every three months and I can tell u exactily what he will say in the next visit ( hows it going......yes welll heres your script). Am qauite normal now, no voices at the moement and my therapist said last time that he can comprehen me, said at the beginning of the year was incomprehensible,) but I thought I was fine ( though hiding from people bewcause they can read your mind isnt exactly normal) I guess Im writing as another form of therapy and getting it out, maybe as a dairy, if you can be bothered with the rambling. Im alone in a biog house ( my boy is with his mother ( isnt funny how quickly she becomes HIS MOTHER no MY WIFE) puppy asleep, and feeling the booze kick in ( headache tomorrow for sure and crap tv till morning) If your've bothered to read this far thanks.,Cheers steve

hi,
welcome to our "happy" home.
i'm not up on time zones, is it still night where you are?
how are you feeling today?i think you'll find plenty of people to raise a glass and ramble with on here.
sounds like you've got a lot on your plate, friend. i'm sorry you lost your wife.
writing is important, i use it as therapy too. i take seroquel too but smaller doses. anyway drop by whenever, cheers.

((hugs))
I dont' worry too much about people being able to read my mind now. I wear a big hat and talk to myself, so what's in my mind is no mystery to anyone and baby, if they find me amusing, that's great. Laugh away, they can, for they know not my history nor me.

well been out of therapy for a month ( but going back) Still on the alchole no good I know but home alone oops big news bought a puppy which is really werid cause when i was 16 i went throght a really bad depressive episode ( though un diagnosed) and got a puuy then which got me through a really bad patch ( is histroy repeating or what). Well at home by self (with puppy) and decided in maybe 5 seconds thought, no tea (dinner for our U.S. freinds, we still have some English from the old country here) and open a bottle then another then another and am walk across the road to the wholesalers (boooze shop I dont know what you U.S.ers call it ) to get some more. BUT big news joined the Gym and did my second work out today ( still sore fromn the frist one). Found out that the wife has been seeing a guy (reason for the quick exit) but I guess it was sort of self fulfilling ( didnt want to trust her from last time so she never reallyb had a chance I guess. I started a new job 6 weeks ago ( im a teacher) AND AM LUCKY THAT THIS PRINCpal didnt listen to my last ( Hes actually an old neighbour so he gave me the benfit of the doubt) and hinted that I may have a job next year. God this writing is good for the ... I dunno getting stuff out. I mean who really reads this and comes over to talk about it. Im kinda closed off with people but this amnonity (sp?? dont teaching spelling well) is good. Any way still on the Meds, not to crazy and l;ooking after a puppy and a son who is going through hell because his parent split up. We talk lots but how do you convince a 6 year old that everythng will be ok???? It hard for him because hes been my linchpin so many times (even if he doesnt know it) and I guess my liufe Goal now is to rasie a healthy boy.
Time to get more beer folks. THanks if you take the time to read these ramblings. It really nice to hear form follow ups.steve
