I saw a guy get ECT IP while I was also IP once. He returned very spacey and just kept walking circles around the dining room. I think my pnurse wants me to stay on Vraylar 3 mg for a couple more weeks before I see her again. I think she’s giving me the benefit of the doubt as she wants me on that other med but I just can’t consent to it! Not with urinary retention and liver damage as side effects right on the front page of the manufacturer’s website. She doesn’t want me to do ECT just yet as she says it’s a last resort.
I went to a friend’s house for a couple hours today and ate dinner and watched tv with her. We hadn’t seen each other in months. That was a nice distraction. I warned her ahead of time about my being hypo/manic and psychotic and she didn’t care one bit! She’s a good friend! Now I’m back home with my cat.
