@ Soupe du jour...Your friend & his family are in my thoughts.
I talked to my pdoc & kind of patched things up with him. I still don't know what to do about my meds, though. He said he trusts my judgement...which doesn't really help me much, because I don't really trust my judgement. Klonopin knocks me out...I'm not sure the AP is indicated, since I don't think I'm psychotic...I'm at a loss. Has anyone here taken an AP for extreme agitation? |
Thanks for the well wishes for my friend. And yes, my antipsychotic is my main agitation fighter. I take Seroquel XR. Many different APs work similarly, though some are better than others at that. Some may even worsen it for some people. I wish your doctor would have given you more advice on the phone.
I know benzos can help agitation, in many cases. If it comes to it, don't hesitate to take a bit, if your doctor prescribes it as a prn.
