So I'm glad to say that I've been stable for a year now! Thank you lamictal! But I've been taking the same doses of my meds from when I was really bad. Shouldn't they be lowered since I'm good now?? Shouldn't the pdoc take that into consideration? Or maybe I'm wrong? Well when I was doing bad I wasn't sleeping and I was rapid cycling and just angry allll the damn time. So for sleep I was on 600mg of seroquel. Well without my pdoc knowing, I had to cut my seroquel down to 300 because 600 was making me sleep 12+hours AND a nap or two! I can't live like that. Yes I know it's wrong to change up your meds without pdoc knowing but being zombied out was making me feel so bad. But even though I cut the dose down, it's still helping and I've been having healthy sleep patterns for the first time in ages. I'm actually thinking about going down to 200mg now. And then there's lamictal. I'm on 400mg, is that a high dose?? Should I cut it down a bit now that I'm doing good? I do have the fear that taking less will make me bad again though.
Does anyone else's dosage change depending on stability?? Or is it too risky??
