Good morning

I slept good last night. The dosing schedule change with my chlorpromazine (Thorazine) is helping me sleep better. The past two days I’ve slept straight through the night instead of waking up at 3-4am and then being up for the rest of the day. Weird how a little change in dose schedule can make such a huge difference but I’m happy with it. Before I was taking 200mg of it 2 hours before bed. Now I’m taking 100mg an hour before bed and 100mg directly when I lay down to go to sleep. So the dose is split now. It’s made a big difference. I went to sleep at 10:30pm last night and slept until my alarm went off at 7am and woke up no problem.

I’ve been thinking of what piercings I want next. I got my nose pierced this past June. Im thinking of getting Tragus piercings on both ears and a conch piercing on my right ear next June. And I need to get my all my tattoos touched up, especially the ones on my wrists.

Anyway, Im doing well, Ive been drawing a lot more the past few days. I feel less paranoid and anxious.

My psychiatrist said she was proud of me for staying at the volunteer lunch shift thing during my panic attack instead of bolting. And also for taking a klonopin when I needed it last Sunday when I was also panicking and paranoid because normally I don’t and I just let things build up until they become huge and totally unmanageable.

I’m making an effort to work on my eating disorder. Not going to either extremes of starving myself or bingeing because I’ve been struggling with both of those. Good news is I haven’t purged in almost a year.

The cats are doing well, they just had their breakfast and now Maybelle is relaxing. Mustachio is just walking around getting into mischief like usual lol

I hope everyone is doing okay and has a good weekend
