Supportng whom exactly..?

After attending Support Groups with my wife for Mental Illness, I have decided to look for a different.

Don't get me wrong, this Support Group does excellent work for people -- who don't suffer from Mental Illness. It's ideal for those that are learning to handle those with Bi Polar, Depression etc.. But it tends to hold little interest for someone like me.

I need to be in a group of indivduals who suffer from it. To who know how absolutely annoying it can be. to know how to tight rope walk with your doctors to find the "Right Cocktail" is frustratting beyond words. I need to know that I am not a freak, I am learning to adjust to another phrase in my life and I don't expect everyone to understand what it is like.

It's a week today left I left the hospital.

I have been on Anti-Depression & Anti-Psychotic medication for the past 2 weeks. The doctors alerted me to the fact that it would take at lease a month before I start feeling the benefits of them, but I already started to feel it after just one week. 

I'm already started to feel more balanced. Taking things one day at a time instead trying to take everything on at same time. The little comments that people make aren't sending into a fit of rage and depression like they once did. That for me, is the hardest thing to get used to. I feel like I was going full speed in the fast lane to dragged over into the slow lane. It's learning readjust to my varying and everything around me. It's very odd, but in a good positive way.
