Sounds like anxiety.
Maybe a side-effect of withdrawal? I hope you feel better soon. ![]() WC |

I'm afraid to call Pdoc because she might think I'm drug seeking. Her nurse for sure would. And Pdoc might tell me to take even longer to wean off zyprexa. (Evil drug)

Quote:
There are plenty of non-benzo options/, but you can let them decide what to give you (benzo, gabapentin, propranolol, buspar, change in another medication's dose, etc). Gabapentin, for example, is not exactly a street drug (I don't think?)... so I wouldn't consider that to be drug seeking |

Sorry you're feeling so anxious. I would ask about gabapentin. Are you on the max dose of rexulti?

Your experience is valid. I am sorry reporting the facts of your experience would be seen as "seeking." Doesn't seem reasonable (on your provider's part).
What are you supposed to do? ![]() WC |

If your doctors assume its drug seeking when it's not, I question the expertise of your practitioner. To be called or labeled a drug seeker erroneously should be considered malpractice as that stuff can follow you and truly impact the care you are receiving (((hugs))). I hope you get the help you need.

I talked with pdoc's nurse. Told her all my symptoms. She said she'd pass them on to Pdoc and then one of them would call me back. Maybe Pdoc will raise Rexulti? Surely not raise zyprexa! That's what I'm afraid of. I'll never get off the stuff.

Pdoc hasn't called. Probably won't now.

I have no motivation. Didn't even do my pill boxes. Don't want to go to the gym. Feel Xtra tired. Maybe I ran around too much today. I ate my daughter's chicken nuggets leftovers for dinner. Really low carb.
