I've been stressing about moving clinics. What do I do if they don't do injections? that's the only medicine that has kept me stablish.

My T said to me when I was worrying about something that "if that happens, you'll deal with it, as you have dealt with problems before." I have been saying that to myself when I worry ever since she said that.

I never thought I could get off Latuda (had to due to insurance), but here I am, off Latuda and doing WAY better on Abilify. You just never know. I'm sure you'll be okay.

The front doesn't know. I'll ask my new T when I meet her. Would you just take the pill form if they don't have it?

They can't even put you on hold and ask someone? And yes I'd take the pill form instead if they didn't have it

Try your best to take the pills if that's your only option. Keep them near your toothbrush, perhaps, a visual reminder.

If the clinic does not do injections, ask if there is a home care nurse that can give you the injection monthly at home.

Thanks for this!
