First off: guilty. Lol

You really need to be straight up honest with your prescriber...or it goes to hell from there.

I'm discovering that there is a med ratio unique to the individual...and raising one drug might negate the effects of the other and a balance would be interrupted.

Like if I take more AD...then I need to raise the stabilizer or the system goes out of wack.....that's for me of course. It takes awhile for stabilization to happen after making unsanctioned adjustments (if it does- lost years....). Besides also...it throws the prescription quantity off even though it worked meaning another trip to the pdoc to explain why there is a dose change just to maintain the new adjustments. Pdocs can be control freaks and might look at you like a difficult client....imho.

You can get a "take as needed" Xr order called a ???- talk to your pdoc: after all....nobody knows our body more then we do.
