As I've posted in here last week, new pdoc, proper diagnoses and complete new med regime incoming.
Withdrawing off the Prozac is not fun. I'm more or less unmedicated at the moment, except for Valium, painkillers and OTC meds to help me sleep (when I can) Being in a mixed episode all over the place isn't helping.
I'm so paranoid. Feeling detached and also really angry as my ex decided to accuse me of giving him an STI. I never sleep around. If I did I would be using protection. The audacity of people. He didn't even apologise for accusing me. Nor has he got results. Lucky I have my GP tomorrow so I will get a test. This just won't stop playing on my mind and it's driving me nuts.
Tuesday I start on the Valproate (Depakote/Epilim) And can't wait. I was only on a low dose earlier in the year which did help somewhat, but I was still having problems with mood/sleep etc. 600-800mg is not therapeutic IMO, nor from what I've read or heard from others on it. I'm guessing he'll go 1000mg.
And then he said we'll see what else needs to be added. Starting from scratch is daunting. Withdrawals on top. Exes being difficult. I feel like I'm going to break soon ARGH.
Thanks for listening to my rambling. Can I curl up and keep hiding from the world?
