I hope you get a med adjustment soon.

The psychiatrist I'm seeing right now is one of those 15-min-appointments psyc from insurance. While he's addressing some stuff correctly, there's this downside and somehow I can't get his phone *sigh*. To be honest, I never asked, but I have this feeling he won't give me anyway, otherwise he would have offered me. This is very common tbh.

And thanks, I'm seeing him this week, hopefully. Maybe I don't notice depression from this lower paroxetine dose when I'm without lamotrigine because I'm hypomanic then.
