I'm down to 20mgs/Abilify per day, plus a low dose of neurontin when I need it (thankfully, not very often). I'm still doing the vitamins/Orthomolecular protocol, and I do think it helps.

Its odd, though, how people at the clinic talk a good game about "recovery," but now that I've made strides towards genuine "recovery," I'm getting some negative feed back at the place. One lady at the front desk rolled her eyes at me. Another said that I "don't impress her," under her breath.

The public/community mental health clinics seem like a good idea. Maybe they are, a lot of times, but...there's definitely an -obvious- component/aspect of social control. The one I go to has a parking spot reserved for law enforcement. Enough said.

oh well. I've been spared the state hospital. Would have been a nightmare in years past. Now, they've changed the laws and such, plus my parents have "arrived" at a higher social class, so...if I did end up in the lovely state hospital, they'd probably spare me the worst of what goes on there. ugh.

ok. finished rambling, for now.
