Since I've been spending today yelling and anyone and anything (i.e., cats, furniture in my way), it's been horrid. Not to mention, I must be fighting off something or getting sick because I'm freezing. It's not freezing in here by a long shot. We keep our thermostat at 74 degrees, and we lose a lot of our AC cooling due to living in a poorly insulated house built in 1964, so the actual air temp is warmer inside.

At my last visit, my pdoc changed me over to Xanax XR, but I suspect it is not good for me. My mood is the pits (depressed & angry), I want to sleep all the time (can't even wake up to an alarm clock, and I have never had this problem my entire life). Also have been slurring my speech, according to my husband.
It could be a depressed phase of BP, but I was feeling pretty good before this.

Pdoc called, said drop the Xanax XR, go back to Klonopin. Thank God. I hope things turn around soon. Today has been God-awful.
