I'm a bit of a packrat. I have thrown away a lot of stuff in the past few years. I think when I do get my own apartment I will need to leave some things behind.
I have type 1 bipolar also with PTSD. I get by on just lamotrigene and lorazepam for the anxiety. Cannabis is a great help as well. Medicated, my mood swings are manageable but when I have gone off my meds...well you probably have a fair idea.
Don't want to derail Brian's thread - just wanted to let you know you're in good company here. LOL
Thanks C'thulhu. My grandma has depression and I think she's been on Lorazepam. I don't doubt cannabis is helpful for you.
With the Schizophrenic aspect of my disease there are auditory hallucinations, so C.annabis would likely do some not nice things to me. There was some AD I took for sleep a year ago that really made me way manic. Usually I don't get like that.
