Ugh, today I have been having that horrible flat affect that comes with being on meds. It has had me thinking about stopping my medications, especially the Lamictal and Seroquel. Bad, bad idea, I know. I get hypomanic and then full blown manic. I hate when this happens
 . I hope it is a temporary thing as I also started my cycle today, and I know the hormones definitely affect my mood and thinking. I don’t see the pdoc until near the end of June, but I guess I will call next week if this doesn’t get better. I already need to phone for a refill of Klonopin because he told me to call once I need it refilled at my last appt. State laws have gotten so tight with refilling benzos that the soonest my pharmacy will let me refill Klonopin is 28 days since the last refill and the doc has to call them up if he’s upped the dosage or something in the meantime and I need more. It is really getting to be a pain.

To me...feeling flat is a good thing...it means that I’m stabile. At first it was horrible because I was missing the thrill of mania...so used to the lifelong cycling of adverse moods...a way of life...
Now after an adjusting period....I don’t want anything else...going unflat is a sign of trouble for me. Now I can make better choices instead of ones made off of irrational moods and feelings. Please give it awhile...it’ll soon become normal.
