My mom finally got in touch with my doctor, who was switching offices, this morning. Now I have an appt for soon! Hopefully I can get a new med for all this paranoia and hallucinations. Scared but excited.

AWESOME NEWS!!! I agree with ElsaMars, when is the appointment? Can u get though till then? There are many options the your doctor can work with so it might make you feel like a lab-rat for a while BUT the trial and error will be co worth it once you find the right med or combo. Gosh, you might even hit the jackpot first go.

I wish you the best of luck and peace.

It's this next Monday. It was the soonest they had since the holiday. Really really hoping we don't have to reschedule this time.

It's this coming Monday, because of the holiday. I'm pretty sure I can make it to then. I've been trying for the right med combo for 2 years now. A lot less than a lot of people but still. I'm hoping to find some med for hallucinations and paranoia.

And thank you

Me too. Try to make sure nothing stands in your way. Have a "just in case" ride backed up. Get some money together for gas or a taxi. Be prepared and don't let anything get in your way. Borrow a bicycle .......don't hitchhike though. Too risky.

I'm going to try! My mom only gets one day off a week so hoping she can request off Monday. I'll check again with my friend who requested gas money (since it's far away). I'm going to see if $5 will do because that's all I have. I'm going to do everything I can to make it to my appointment.
