I get the reference when you point it out...
DX: I've never been given an actual DX by any doctor I've seen, however I'm 100% certain to have some form of bipolar (depression, frequent mixed episodes, infrequent hypomania and mania only when on antidepressants), multiple forms of anxiety, PMDD and lately I'm questioning the possibility of BPD due to my "I hate you, don't leave me" behavior even while otherwise fairly stable on meds.

Meds: Lithium 1200mg, Trazodone (god's gift to the sleep impoverished), clonazepam as needed, birth control pills for PMDD (but they don't help).

I only remember the bit from the movie, not the series. That's why I was asking if it was too obscure.

congrats Sorrel :-)

(I expected a post on a camp designed for kids/teens w/ ADHD or similar illnesses...i.e, techniques and skills for paying attention. that sounded quite boring, so I'm glad it's not the case)
probably bipolar NOS. possibly adjustment disorder w/ mixed mood and anxiety components or MDD w/ anxiety. still a dx in progress, I guess. Some trauma elements.

current RXs: Effexor (150 mg), Ativan (0.5 mg daily; lorazepam), Lamictal (250 mg; lamotrigine); Halcion (triazolam); levothyroxine (75 mcg) and
birth control.

Past Rxs: zoloft (like a sugar pill); lexapro (hit an anxiety/akathesia problem); wellbutrin; seroquel; ambien; risperdal

It's amazing how life threatening situations make the suicidal thoughts slip away. Not wanting pain and wanting to die are two different things.
