I had my T appointment today, it was productive. I have some more homework to do. It's a slow process but it took a long time to get here so it'll take some time for things to change.
Depression is still doing its thing. I see my pdoc in a couple of weeks. I'm going to ask her about adding Caplyta.
I'm thinking of seeing my regular doctor about my hemorrhoids - they don't seem to be going away. Things have improved but they're still not gone and can be quite painful at times.

I'm sorry to hear that you're still struggling with depression and anxiety. It's awful. But right now I'm only struggling with anxiety and motivation. It's good you use your coping skills even though they only help so much. It's that way for me too.
My psychiatrist has also mentioned putting meon Caplyta. I have pretty bad tremors and my lip (the top corner)especially when I'm anxious curls up from ivega. He said Caplyta has fewer EPS symptoms than invega. This is tmi but bc my life has been a mess I've stayed on the invega bc it has taken my period away for over a year. But I've been getting sharp pains where my ovaries are like once a week. I need to get to the gyno. Sorry I rambled. But I think after I get my sleep figured out I'm going to try Caplyta.
I'm really sorry about the hemorrhoids as well. I had them really bad when I was pregnant and a couple times after that. I really hope things start looking up for you! 😊
