Sorry, Yoda. Most of the people on the sz and psychosis forum are so familiar with the back story, I just started the thread as if everyone knew what was going on.

My son's pdoc lowered his Zyprexa which I had requested in an email to him on Tuesday but which he told me wasn't going to do. So I was taken by surprise.

Since that email exchange, my son was offered a job which he interviewed for a couple of weeks ago but which neither of us thought he would actually get and which is probably too stressful for him under the best of circumstances (group leader at a Boys and Girls Club). In light of the new job (which we feel like he should accept because of pressures from voc rehab and Ticket to Work), it probably isn't wise to lower his meds right now. I didn't send another email to the pdoc explaining all this, because I thought the lowered dose was out of the question. (He even hinted he might raise the dose.) So I was surprised to hear he'd lowered the dose after all. My son told the pdoc he had a new job, but he didn't mention this dreadful feeling he's having.

Probably no one has the answer. I was just looking for sympathy.

P.S. It's a measure of my stress about this that I'm awake and posting on the Internet at 3 am! And I'm probably making about as much sense as I do at 3 am.
