I was worried when the seroquel was starting to make me feel weird that my new pdoc was going to take me off of it, but my worry was unwarranted. She took me off the 50mg I was taking during the day, but left the 200mg I take at night, and instead started me on 5mg of Abilify during the day, and it's been wonderful. I'm ambitious, not zombified, my irritability has almost vanished, and I just feel great! I just had to share.

Nope. No side effects at all yet. Except for the seroquel making me sleepy, but that's sorta why I like it.

Thanks everyone! It feel so good to feel good. I also have my restriction for 1st shift in place, today we're leaving to go spend Thanksgiving with my brother in Cincinatti, and we have plane tickets bought to fly to Arizona and surprise my grandma on Christmas Eve. Things seem to finally be going well. It's about time.
