Hi Pat,
Thank you so much for your reply...I guess I am scared that life as I know it is now over. That I won't be able to keep working, take good care of my kids, etc. I am seeing a good p-doc that has me on Seroquel and Lamictal. He did tell me that the majority of his patients do well and have never been hospitalized. I don't know if this is really true or if he told me that to make me feel better. My husband is very supportive. I am also starting cognative behavior therapy tomorrow. I guess I just fear the future and what it will hold with the dx. Also, I fear telling any of my friends or anyone at work because of the stigma. It's just hard for me to deal with the future right now.
