Hey all,

My wife was diagnosed BP1 in 2020. So far she has had 3 manic psychotic breakdowns that have required 3-4 weeks of BHU care to treat.

In middle of May this year, she was diagnosed with Graves’ disease, and we lost our dog that we have had our entire 12 year relationship and shortly after she was hospitalized for 3 weeks with a psychotic manic episode.

I saw the signs, but thought this time was different. Boy was I wrong. Her mania ramped up over I’d say about 5 days and by the 5th day it was crystal clear that there was no avoiding hospitalization. She was convinced she was only hypo manic and it was manageable but I’m learning that this doesn’t really happen with BP1.

So has anyone found an effective way to prevent this full scale psychotic break? Or is it basically once this mania starts coming on it’s too late? I feel beyond helpless when it happens, and I always hope it’s not unstoppable without a BHU trip but this last time I learned that unless we find a way to cull her manic ramp up that it’s bye bye for 3-4 weeks. We have a 2 year old now and this last one was devastating for us.

She takes her meds religiously, but this time it just didn’t work, and her last psych was pretty horrible at helping as we called a few days before she was admitted but received no response. I feel like the graves + loss of our dog really tipped her over.

I appreciate any feedback here. If I could find a way to prevent a full scale manic break then I feel like a completely new chapter would be open in our lives. It’s so exhausting feeling helpless in these situations.

Hey all, I’m lvling my priest with the goal of snagging the set this season, but I’m curious would I be able to do it as holy without much issue? Just not a huge fan of disc and kinda enjoy the simplicity of holy a little bit more, although I see holy is way less represented.

Been enjoying Pres a bit and wanted to roll Dev to learn it but the representation is just terrible on drustvar.

They’re like 4th or 5th least represented, is there any particular reason for this? Bad dmg? Bad in this meta? Easier to kill than most?

How is this even still a thing, I’ve heard it has been around for quite some time now and I’m still being rendered completely unable to heal after coming out of MC, wtf is this? Has happened several times today

It is inSANE how bad these idiots destroyed the creation of a simple yet effective UI, like holy shit man. Heads should have rolled for this blasphemy.

So instead of the way it used to be, now you have to use some hodgepodge combo of mind numbing option bloated addons like arenacore paired with minicc paired with a friendly party frame addon for healers paired with tmw if you use cooldown icons because the default blizz cd tracker is an abomination.

I’m about to just go back to playing leisure suit larry and call it a day on this mess

Anyone got any solid tips for a noob learning this spec? I’ve got my binds down pretty well, but coming from other healers this feels so much different lol.

Coming from rsham and mostly crackle monk in TWW

Best stasis combos?
Best healing when teammate getting nuked?
Healing rotation during medium damage?
When do you cast emerald blossom?

Trying to wrap my mind around the theory of using echo, so you cast echo, then heal something else and it applies to echo casted teammate, so you’re casting a ton of echo throughout the shuffle on your entire team?

Does echo give that ally lifebind if I VE someone else?

Thanks!

Curious to hear some answers!
