Can you contact your Pdoc in the morning ?

I see her tomorrow in the morning so I'll talk to her then. You're right though, mixed episodes are pure hell. I guess I just gotta last till then...

I'm sorry you're feeling so bad mentally now. I'm glad to hear you're working with your doctor again, but of course it will take time for the meds to reach their full effects. If you're still caught up in a mixed episode tomorrow, it might be worth asking your pdoc for a few days of something like Klonopin to help you make it through until your main meds are straightened out.

I did a google search for Saphris withdraw and found some people that had the same reaction as me. But it's a good point, that you can't be sure which change is giving you problems. You're totally right on. Again I see her tomorrow so I'll take your advice about asking for something like Klonopin if I still feel bad tomorrow. From how I feel now I think it will be. It just keeps getting worse...
