I talked with my therapist today. She thought that my issues last night were related to the anxiety over my meds. I think so too. She even said that my hearing thunder was likely me hearing thunder. She said that just because I heard it and my husband didn't, didn't mean it wasn't there. She said I shouldn't jump to conclusions when I was clearly stressed to the max about something entirely different. I know that I tend to do that. She thought my affect was fine.

Then tonight I talked to my hubs and mom. They both agreed to the Lamictal only. I took everything this morning but I am going to try this experiment. So, tonight, and until it is decided otherwise, and with the support of my pdoc, I took only the Lamictal (although I am going to get up in a moment and take the Klonapin to help me sleep tonight because I can forsee that being an issue). My pdoc warned that I may need the Abilify right off since he sensed my mood seemed a little elevated but we are going to start here. I hope this works. When I was young and took all of these meds, it was when I dropped to only one that I started to get better, that I dropped all of the stupid weight, and that I stopped feeling like such a ditzy, emotionless robot.

Good luck to me...I have butterflies even typing this.
