If your meds aren't working you need to see your pdoc and if you feel unstable, the sooner the better.
I've thought about switching pdoc because my current one isn't very good. She's sweet, but disorganized.

Yes, she's been on vacation though. I should be seeing her later this week.

I have never experienced wanting to (or enjoying) hurting someone, or the extreme ambivalence about social stuff. I also don't feel detached in the way you describe. It sounds horrible for you :-(
I don't see it that way. At least not now. I don't see what the big deal is in giving someone the cold shoulder so they can experience rejection. Some people need that in their lives. Plus, its a way to play the game of life. There's a lot of terrible people out there and you can't be a wimp - you gotta play the game.

I really hope someone can offer you more I can.

This is a great group and there is a lot of collective knowledge here.

And stress and not taking meds can do all sorts of stuff...
Thanks
