okay, I think I am in?!? ........update. The journey continues. Up one road and then another, that's my story and I am sticking to it. I have had my bags packed and ready to leave my relationship with my husband (26 yrs). I have been at my wits end. I asked the Lord if I could go and I quietly heard, " stay one more day"....... so I stayed and just lived out of my bags. Then I found out some information that sent me on another journey. Short of it,.. is like this. I found a Phychologist in Houston who agreed to see us. The cost was $300.00. It took a while to save it but I did. Then we went to see him. He said that Tim was overmedicated and on the wrong meds. He gave him a different diagnosis and changed all of his meds. We seem to be on the mend. Tim is out of his bed and has begun functioning again (after staying in his bed for almost 6 months!). The steps are slow and the adjustments from one med to another is taxing but we can see a difference. I am glad I was able to hang in there one more day! I am about to make one more carreer change. In January I will start school to become a Funeral Director. And that is another journey on its own.
I am plugging along spiritually and feel somewhat relieved to have discovered I am somewhat normal after meeting all of you. I do hope to stay connected and hope this place will help. Happy Thanksgiving to you all and look forward to hearing how things are going!

I am so proud of you for hanging in there...I know it has been so hard for you and Tim but your faith and our prayers have brought you one step closer. Take pride in the small victories Constance! I can sense the hope in your words and I know you will continue on this journey...
ReplyDeleteOh Constance! I am so glad that you were able to see a good doctor. Finding the right one can be difficult, especially with depression and bipolar disorder. I am praying that things get better soon! I am so excited to here that your husband is out of bed! What a gift from God. I am also excited to hear about you going school. I know you will do great!
