Thanks. I got through today (last day of my daughter's 5th grade year, end of elementary school) though I teared up now and again thinking about it off and on during the day. My daughter was not at all nostalgic and in high spirits and says she is ready to start 6th grade and sick of elementary school. I'm doing a bit better now. I meant to do some organizing, but I ended up taking my daughter to the library and then to buy some sandals for the summer. I also scheduled what felt like endless appointments for myself and things like my daughter's dental cleaning, annual wellness exam and had to leave a voicemail with a doctor's PA about a question I had. I think I still have to schedule a vet appointment for one of my cats (annual exam). Beyond tired of scheduling appointments.
Moose, I'm wondering too if the fatty liver is from the AP. I have not taken many APs, but I've been on Seroquel in varying dosages forever and had brief stints with Risperdal and Abilify. And I've been on psych meds over 20 years, minus my pregnancy (though I did go on a couple meds the end of the 3rd trimester). If you think I take a lot of meds now, the free county med system that misdiagnosed me with major depression and gave me whopping amounts of SSRIs probably had me on 3 times as many medications. My psychiatrist plans to taper some, but not until I've got the iron anemia under control as it can affect mood and anxiety.
