a person can be diagnosed with bipolar at any age. look at me lol, i was diagnosed with it last year at the age of 37. bipolar can present in children as young as 5, so its not uncommon. best thing to do is to keep pestering your dr about her and ask for an opinion from a physcatrist.

tins of quality streets and celebrations, box of truffles, walnut whips, terry's all gold. best girft was my fave perfume from my son and a new cup and loads of bubble baths from my partner.

ive not done too bad with the chocs today. i put on my diary that i had 9 but i only had 6, i did it to make me think id not got a lot of calories left but then my son brought in a piece of cheesecake so i ended up going over the calories anyway :yawn: :devil:

ranging from 2 hours to 7 hours but for the past 3 weeks its been mainly 2 hours if that. lost count the number of sleepless nights and days. my dr gave me sleeping tablets but they dont work. i feel so un motivated and sluggish

i'm tracey, i'm looking to loose about 150lb, so if you want, add me too x

i carried on with exercise with bad knees and now have very bad arthiritis in my left knee. Better to check things out with a specialist first before you do any damage. I speak with experience as now, i am limited to what i can do when i have very bad knee pain.
