"ok i&#039;ve been undiagnosed and put on anti anxietys and just left with no review of meds for 18 years. i have managed to change drs or let them ignore me or masked symptoms as i myself was a mental health nurse so unconsciously or maybe again i maybe ignored my behaviour. anyway what i&#039;m saying is i&#039;ve tried a lot prescribed a lot and have to admit until 3 years ago when i started a new anxiety med and seeing a dr who i didn&#039;t have to keep explaining often wrongly. so sertraline started making me clearer in thought and helped my recovery to start. i begged the dr to look at the cycles too look at the patterns of highs lows. and finally i was put on quintiapine! i can sleep when i need to at normal times and have to admit it changed my bi polar."
