Tweaky's psychiatric update...

Doing well. Stopped the oral Abilify from 15 to 10 the next day and then tomorrow it will be 0. The injection will take over then. I don't like how symptoms get worse at the end of the injection but my psychiatrist says that it depends on the person and the pharmacist says that I'm at the 5th week where the injection stabilizes at 6 weeks. Some people are given a shot every 2 weeks instead of a month because it gets absorbed faster. I think that's the case because drugs barely effect me until I reach max or over max dose.

I'm getting tremors and I don't really care but he gave Cogentin as a PRN.

Going to groups again and they are great.

They noticed that the increase in Abilify gave me more motivation but I told them that the Concerta gives me more motivation than the Vyvanse and the Vyvanse gives more clarity to focus, lasts much longer but doesn't lessen distractions that the Concerta did so we're not really sure and probably will increase it to 70mg.

If the short lasting stimulants are covered, I don't mind taking them just that my psychiatrist would be tense from me taking them all at once in the previous hospital and my other psychiatrist would probably not want to because I "Ran out" and "Swallowed them all". I said it straight up and reason that I'm bored and the Concerta didn't last long enough lol

Now for another * weekend here... I should be out at the 2nd of May idk
Thanks for this!
