I've never disocciated before (to my knowledge) so don't know what it feels like. I've been taking my full dose of seroquel for a while now.

Anyway, we were tapering me off loxapine. I got down to 20mg from 50mg, and it wasn't working out obviously. I took 40mg last night and feel much more grounded today. I'm going to call my psychiatrist tomorrow and tell her I want to stay at my original dose, which was 50mg. Another med we tried getting me off of that didn't work out. Sigh. At least now I know loxapine is the antipsychotic keeping me from going psychotic! Maybe we can try seroquel next. I don't know. Nothing works out. I'm DOOMED to be a walking pharmacy!

I got a monroe piercing today. It's swelled up like a bytch, but pain level getting it done was like 0/10. As soon as it heals I'm getting one done on the other side.

On Friday we're seeing Halsey (one of our daughter's favorite musicians). My husband made a HUGE f-up and thought it was near Milwaukee but it's actually a four and a half drive across state! He had to quick book a hotel and get his Saturday morning shift covered, otherwise our daughter would have been devastated. 💔 And then on Saturday her and I are going to a pride event downtown. It's supposed to be like ninety-three degrees and after a four and a half car drive I don't know if I want to go anymore, but she still does, so we're going. Should be fun though, even if it's going to be BOILING outside. I don't do well in heat unfortunately.

BUT feeling better, hoping I sleep tonight. 🙏 Did buy some melatonin, so if I wake up in the middle of the night I'll take that. No problem.
