She's going to call back with instructions on what to do with the lithium because I'm on the IR and I don't think taking 600mg at night is going to do much... but 1200mg was too much. I'm kinda freaking out now though because she said she can't force me into the hospital so of course I'm thinking she's going to send someone to my house and every car that drives by gives me panic. I'm thinking she's waiting until I told her my mom would be home to call because she's going to try and convince her to get me hospitalized. I don't need it. I just need someone competent to change my meds to get me out of this "episode" (which I'm starting to think is my normal) and I did find out who is covering for my aprn and turns out I had two appointments with her earlier in the year. She's my favorite that I've had so of course they wouldn't stick me with her too long. But still, I don't need to sit in an ER for a week or a month depending if it's IEA or not. If I could just talk to the covering aprn directly that'd be great, but no, that's apparently not allowed outside of scheduled appointments.

I'm sorry you're having to jump through all the hoops just to obtain the proper medication. It's just wrong.
