Cyclothymia: my story
Cyclothymia is very similar to bipolar but less intense. Basically high points are lower and low points are higher. As I’m “lucky” to have cyclothymia and as it isn’t that discussed in public space, I want to share my experience so that someone who struggles in a similar way would know that it’s ok to be like this and there are ways to help yourself to maintain the decent level of life.

0:40 Bipolar & Cyclothymia
2:10 How my Cyclothymia went
7:57 How the pills influenced me

      Thank you! Yeah, I'm taking lamotrigine. I hope you will feel better. I also recently stumbled upon a "Cyclothymia Workbook" that seems pretty helpful in terms of reflecting on yourself and learning to manage.

    Hi 😊 how long did you find your cycles? number of days for a depressive/stable/up? Thanks! I've started lamotrigine, fingers crossed it will help. I feel how you described

    • @planbe27
      @planbe27 Před 2 lety

      Hi, sorry for the late reply, after this video I went deeper :( I can't say exactly about the length, without the pills "up" state was maximum a week, the "down" month-2. Now with lamotrigine it's different, I had pretty stable good period for 3 months, but then suddenly it got worse but really bad I felt only for 2 weeks. Basically, I'm getting to know all this stuff and learning how to manage.

      @@sajdjdiwknwh1207 I take 200, but in any case, you need to talk to your doctor about raising the dose. The first step when we were talking about the dosage with my doctor was to take a blood test to see the concentration of the medicine in the blood, which also influences. Actually, I ended up taking a light AD also, per my doctor's recommendation. And I need to maintain the routine pretty strictly, that helps me. And also, I realized that it's important to do therapy in addition to pills.
