This afternoon "shit hit the fan" in the McKinney household. I had a major breakdown, and became violent, luckily toward things and not people. It scared me, it was exhausting and I didn't like it one bit. The problem is that it will happen again ... thus the name "bi-polar".
I contacted my pDoc and he put me on Celexa. It wasn't a medication replacement, but an addition to my current 6 drug regiment. A major side effect is sexual dysfunction, but that will have the same effect on me as a dead dog run over again by a car. Men who are on psychotropic medications could moonlight as eunuchs.
This is the second time it has happened in as many months. The next time I'll go to the hospital for a few days in an attempt to put a stop to this specific pattern.
This trip through life can get pretty rough ...
