Just got off my FaceTime appointment with my pdoc, and she listened to how bad my summer has been and wants to make some changes immediately to fix it. No complete change to my meds, but some big changes. Immediately stop Trileptal, and replace it with Depakote, my med from pre-hospital. She wants me back on all of my pre-hospitalization meds and we'll make adjustments from there. I hate to finally say this, but I have some hope. I told her how awful my summer was with the constant mania and mixed-mania episodes and she actually listened. She listened to everything on my list before responding. It was magical. It was not like so many other appointments. My only bummer is that I have to wait until December to make the next change. Every three months I see her. Ugh.

Thanks for reading and know that I send my love and positive vibes to you all.
