Thank you all so much! I think I was in a depressive/mixed state during the majority of all of this. It was hard to see my progress and accomplishments as real things. I still struggle but I think today is the first day I've regained confidence in myself. I am so grateful for everyone in my life and I am very proud of how far I have come. I guess I saw a lot of people here saying they were fired for asking for accommodations and I know this is a special situation but I do believe if you have people around who really care about you and value you they'll work with you to get through the tough times.
I did take Lamictal for a few years throughout high school and college. I did not have the same mood swings and while I don't remember much of that time I was told that I seemed better for it. I also made it through college with good grades so Im pretty sure I didn't experience a lack of motivation.
We are aiming for 150 because that is what I was on then and I don't want to take too much more time to adjust. Also, I know all too well about the shaking. It's pretty difficult to handle especially since it could trigger my tic disorder, but I've found exercise helps a lot. Even jumping jacks!
I wish you all well on your individual journeys. Adjusting is so so hard but i think it will be worth it in the end.
