Ever since my massive clean/organizing episode on Thursday. I haven't been sleeping well. Wake up for a 2-3 hours during the night then I am tired in the morning. I then take 2-3 hour nap. I haven't done much more around the house. The good news is I am feeling better. More calm. I am cutting down on my spending but need to do more. It is such a funny feeling when you feel better. I don't understand how you feel so bad then one day it is over. With me feeling better doesn't happen gradual. It is like poof I am better.
GOAL - Get on a reqular sleep pattern. I am not doing another goal until this is done.View Thread

Yesterday I did paid my bills. That is all I accomplished yesterday. Since my great day on Thursday, my sleep is so screwed up. Last night I was awake form 2 to330. Then I had to wake at 7 for something at the club house. I caved in afterwards to go garage saling I got home around 230. I was exhausted. I then napped for 2 1/2 hours. No wonder my sleep is messed up.
GOAL for tonight is work at my remaining mess. I will not work all night. I have to get in a normal regular sleep pattern. To be in bed by 11pm
To everyone a wonderful weekend with their love ones. Good nightView Thread

I was a RN and I can tell you that they can not change or ommit the initial note in the chart legally. Wheather it was a paper or electronic chart. What they can do, is write in the notes of the next appt. Tell them their first note was subjective. You insist that they write an objective note reguarding your changes in providers.They can be more specific of exactly how many changes you have made and the reason why. Providers really understand the differences of objective and subjective notes..Objective statements carry more weight. The subjective comment "history of changing providers" could mean one thing to one person. Like changing every year. To another it mean changing every month. Also the conutation of changing providers is sometime linked to drug seekers. You can tell them that you feel that comment could affect your treatment.
There is one more thing I would reccommend is to present it in a nice calm way. Not attacking or angry way. My mother always told me, "you always get more with sugar than vinegar"
That goes double with the medical field.
Please let me know if I explained this adequately or if you have any more questions. I wish you a satisfactory outcome DonnaView Thread

Another thing that gets me to pick up ( and it has nothing to do with bp) is when the housekeeper is coming. That is the craziest thing. It has been ages since I had someone to clean.
So I don't have to pick up.View Thread

The two days at the hotel sounds perfect for both of you. Something that you both needed. Don't ruin it with feeling quilty.
I have had a basket of laundry to be folded and have gradually picked through them to wear something. It gets to the point that I end I folding maybe 5 items. The dishes are the same way. It gets to the point , that I will wait doing the dishes until I get a full load for the dishwasher.

I don't know of any site or study of what you ask. What you described sounds extremely reasonable. I have had the occassion to see something in my medical records that wasn't correct. Either it didn't occur that way or their assesment of me was wrong. Just because they are the professional doesn't mean they are correct all the time. Even though it was hard to read these comments. I finally let it go and forget about them.as long as it is not interfering with my treatment.

Well I didn't really accomplish my goal. My office desk is clean. Only because I looked at the papers in then put it in a basket to deal with later. I now have two baskets over flowing. I found some bills and put them in a stack. I hope to pay them after this post. I laid down at 3 for a short nap before pizza( bjcookie - it must be the night for pizza) at the club house ay 430. Well I woke up at 630. I may try doing a little tonight. The great thing is I am not feeling bad or quilty about what I did (or not do) today.
bjcookie - how was your pizza outing.
I wish everyone a enjoyable evening and restful nightView Thread

I am not sure what you mean by ultimate stability. Is it that you no longer have any symptoms of bipolar? That the medication sort of "cures" you?
