I've been mixed for awhile now according to pdoc. At my appointment yesterday, I forgot to tell him I've become very forgetful. I know I wrote about it today, maybe in the needing a therapist thread.

He has not changed my meds lately though I was out of buspirone but I have no idea when the pill box ran out. I had been very forgetful, and he adjusted the Clonidine and that helped, but I wasn't mixed then and that was in the first half of April.

Is awful forgetfulness related to being very mixed, especially having a lot of stress and/or frustrating tasks to do? I have been forgetful on meds before but never to this extent and not so bad so suddenly, today being about 10 times worse than yesterday. Buspar isn't supposed to have withdrawal side effects, and I don't think I was on it that long - 6 months maybe? I know I would have had some pills starting to fill my pill box for the week and that I'd run out, but I figured the mail order pills would get here in time. Buspar was never hard for me to stop or start in the past, and it was less than a week of not taking it.

Is it just the mixed being or getting worse? Anxiety/panic? I don't want to bug the pdoc again today (feels like I'm constantly doing that lately), and I want to see if it is better tomorrow (if not, I'll call then).
