Six days ago I was seriously about to die as planned when I woke early am. Yet instead I slept straight till midday (odd for me, even with the extra meds) and woke up joyful and un-traumatised. Six days later I am still doing really well. Four and a half months of hell and I am FREE!!!!
I just wanted to share my journey. To get it down, and if it may help someone else. Saw my T today and he is really happy for me. Says I am a little hypomanic but that should settle soon.
For your information I am on:
Geodon 120mg
Lithium 1250mg
Lamotrigine 300mg
Clonazepam 3mg (and reducing)
Seroquel 50mg to sleep (to be stopped)

Wow, 9 ECT--I did not know people could get 9 ECT in the same month. I hope people are put you to sleep for it (that it is not like the scenes from movies).
I am glad you are out
and hope you get to stay a little hypomanic for a while.
