Just being here with me is the most helpful thing, I think.
Today L was telling me due to my financial situation I should probably consider choosing to work with either her or M exclusively. Ordinarily this would have upset me a lot because I use them as a team but.... today, M was such an obvious choice. It's like L is totally checked out and moved away already. Doesn't remember basic info. I feel so abandoned.
Sorry. I am ranting. But there's no one in my life to talk to.

I'm sorry that L seems checked out... As for meds, it could be worth trying really low dosages. I'm very sensitive to meds and have to use really low amounts, like less than the lowest therapeutic dose in some cases. (Like 1 mg of Abilify, breaking the tiniest pill in half.) I'm lucky that I found a psychiatrist last year who believes that some people only need really tiny doses. So it could be worth trying tiny doses? And finding a psychiatrist who is open to that?
