@BeyondtheRainbow Thanks for the little pep talk

@Sunflower123 I'm sorry you're struggling so much right now. I hope keeping busy helps in the way you want it to.

@wildflowerchild25 I'm rooting for you as you strive for your March 9th goal!

My psychiatrist called me today with the results of my bloodwork (I appreciate that he called instead of having his nurse call). He said my lithium levels are at the bottom end of the range they can be so, if I feel the need, I can up the dose. I see him on Thursday so I'll with him more about this in.

Right now, I'm wondering if I should give this current dose a couple more weeks to see if anything changes. My counselor pointed out I gained some new awarenesses this week (I started lithium a week ago today) so that may be a sign the med is working to at least take the edge off.

Today had its moments but was definitely better than yesterday. There are some behavior issues at school so that is tough. And, the coworker who is mad at me has started talking (I just don't know to how many people...)

I had counseling so am feeling in a good spot as I go to bed.
