Today has been fine. The Wellbutrin seems to be working. I'm not having any anxiety or mania. My sleep has been fine. I don't need or want anything from stores and I'm not hungry besides hungry fo normal healthy stuff. So there hasn't been much to do today. I did get a primary appointment set up and I'm trying to work out my new med. The out of state pharmacy is playing fax tag with my doctor.
But overall today has been boring but ok. The lady from my regular insurance was so stupid it was sad. She couldn't keep details right. Or names right. My mom was arguing with her for like 40 minutes. It took her over 10 minutes just to understand why we were calling. Once we called the speciailty pharmacy they understood immediatly. But idk if this woman had cognitive issues or what.

Yup it's real and I know because I have it.
My pdoc has been looking for a treatment that works for the past 7 years - since I had to stop lamictal which worked better than anything in the past 7 years.
And guess what? She's considering putting me back on lamictal because so many meds haven't worked. I still had up and down days but they were manageable.
