Or I went off it after I was done with depakote? That doesn't make sense time wise though.


I hope it works well for you. I also hope it works well enough to get off Seroquel.

Your pdoc sounds really reasonable. That's such a good thing. I am so afraid that when my pdoc retires I'll wind up with someone unreasonable and impatient with me.
I understand your fear about ending up with an unreasonable pdoc! My pdoc is 70 and I'm afraid of him retiring. We talked about my diazepam and I told him I was worried that when he retires I'll end up with a pdoc who takes me off diazepam cold turkey and asked him if he thought I should go off diazepam now because I know he knows how to taper people off benzos. He said me going off diazepam was a bad idea and assured me he's not retiring anytime soon! Whew. Thank god!

Took my first dose of hydroxyzine tonight. Definitely don't need to take a seroquel, that's all I gotta say. Lol
