Good morning, heading out for a walk to the library soon. It’s supposed to rain when I go out but that’s okay, I’ll just bring my umbrella. ☂️
I’m mostly doing it for exercise though I do have a couple books I want to return as well
Feeling pretty good today. I haven’t really dissociated in almost 2 weeks now. Which is crazy cause normally for years on end it was like every other day at least. I’m really happy about that and hope it continues.
Things are going fine with the trileptal decrease. Which automatically makes my Lamictal levels rise so I have to hold off till next friday to increase the Lamictal. Then next Friday once it’s been two weeks I can go right ahead and increase the Lamictal from 100 mg to the target dose of 200mg. Then once I see my psychiatrist in August I can stop the trileptal entirely and be finished with the med changes finally thankfully.
My psychiatrist and I decided on not messing with coming off the Thorazine because it helps a lot and there’s no need to stop it especially since there’s no negative side effects I experience from it.
My final med combo which I have confidence that will keep me stable long term since I’m already doing significantly better on the changes is:
Abilify 30mg
Zoloft 50mg
Lamictal 200mg
Thorazine 400 mg
And klonopin as needed (which I rarely take, one bottle lasts me like 3-5 months, because I only use it in emergencies)
I’m excited for the rock painting class I’m teaching next Thursday. Should be fun
Have my Bible study with @
LadyShadow tonight at 5pm so am really looking forward to that too!
Hugs to everyone struggling and everyone in general
