Routines can help stabilize bipolar. If it is at all possible try to eat on a regular schedule, even if it is only a little bit. I'm glad you have SIL, your son, your guy and your T.

I ended up packing 3mg Ativan onto the 400mg trazodone. Hoo boy. That ****ing knocked me out so hard I didn’t change positions all night and I didn’t wake up in time to put my absence in. So I had to email my principal separately taking real care not to appear drugged in it. My eyes are still unfocused. If I make it to work tomorrow I hope they call me in and fire me. That would be the best. I wouldn’t even finish out my contrait. Unless lamictal proves to be some sort
Of miracle/ I don’t know what to do. I need strong force to combat this but I should not drive. I’m not interested I. Taking anyone else down with me.

Please don't give up on the lamictal.
you can safely go up to 400mg a day. That is what I take. 200mg is the standard dose. (((((HUGS))))) bizi

Wow this is pretty rough. When I was bad and having to go up on lamictal slowly, my pdoc put me on a low dose of atypical antipsychotic and it helped a ton within days. Not to say I was perfect, but it took the edge off enough that I could function with a lot of effort, and I could sleep. Can you call and ask if there's a supplemental med you could take?

I kind of agree with Nola. Sometimes when we’re in crisis mode we have to be pretty insistent with our doctor. “Ok titration up on this med may help me in a week or so, but I’m crisis mode NOW! I need help NOW!”

So fun story time...after I took my son to the bus stop this am my mother stops me and says “you need help”. Yeah obviously (I think she though I was drunk). Anyway she basically kidnaps me and take me to her church to speak to the pastor, or lectures me for forty minutes about god’s plan in my life and that maybe it is bipolar, but it’s likely Satan’s influence over my mind. I have to push Satan away by repenting and accepting Jesus and only then will I be healed.
I mean...I really tried to keep a straight face and no offense to anyone here who believes, but...really? Bipolar can be cured because it’s just Satan influencing me? Riiiiight. I might take that more seriously if my mom were a happy person but she’s miserable. She’s also just waiting to die so she can go to heaven. Sooooo...yeah. That was my morning. Then I drove to my SIL house praying not to get pulled over bc I knew they would ping me as under the influence because of all the stupid Ativan. I’m here at my therapists office and not sure how things are going to go. I feel better than yesterday because I’m STILL STONED sixteen hours later. But when I say I don’t care, I truly don’t care. I just want this hell to be over, I’d that means overtaking Ativan till the lamictal kicks in then there it is. Some people Mentioned contacting pdoc - she is out of office until May 1. No way to reach her. Not sure if there’s anothe pdoc who could see me in an emergency.

Do your therapist and pdoc work in the same office? When I was temporarily without a pdoc, the office gave me hard time after I begged them for an emergency pdoc appt. They said, "no, we don't do doctor sharing. You have to wait for your intake appt with your new dr. And we can't change your dr because there are no other drs taking patients." Then when things got really bad (after having psychosis that got worse and worse over 5 ****ing weeks), my therapist intervened and MADE them give me an appt.
