Finally fell asleep at about 2 AMish or so and woke up at 1030, which is basically a miracle for me. So grateful. I am clearly coming down from this recent mania and psychosis thing. I really haven't had much of either for several days, to speak of. I forgot it could be like this. It's weird--sometimes, when it's really bad, I can't seem to remember what it was like when it was not bad. It's like my memory does not work. Weird.
I am ascribing much of my recent improvement to the added Depakote, whether that is accurate or not. But I tend to think it likely is. The worrying thing is that all those symptoms came through while on lithium and Abilify, which does not say much for them. I wonder if they have just for some reason stopped working for me??? Maybe we should just stop them and do just the Depakote? I dunno. Will have to let Dr. C figure all that out for me. Above my pay grade. I just take what they tell me to. Missed my bike ride this morning because of the sleep thing, so will do an evening ride, which will be kind of different. Also hoping to do a little writing on my book today. I have about 45,000 words so far and am aiming for maye, 80,000ish. Love and hugs to all!!!! __________________ When I was a kid, my parents moved a lot, but I always found them--Rodney Dangerfield |

Had a fairly busy day. Brought some stuff over from my old apartment. Went grocery shopping. And cleaned my new place (I've been here a week now). Next week is going to be insanely busy. Lets see, I have to get a physical, and have appointments to see my dentist, my eye doctor, my care manager, and my therapist, plus something else I have to go to. 3 of the appointments are on one day. I'm going to be so worn out when the week is over.
I'm bringing my coffee pot over finally from my old place because my sister is stopping by for coffee and cheesecake tomorrow which will be nice. I'm doing well overall, no issues with my meds. Some breakthrough symptoms every now and then when stress is high but other than that I'm doing really good  Hope everyone is having a nice weekend

Pdoc raised Seroquel dose last night.. FINALLY slept. My lovely niece came by for lunch! I had all I could do to keep my eyes open. It's been a long time since I've slept much at all. Exhausted.
Love to All!

It snowed several inches last night! What a beautiful, unexpected wonder to wake up to.
Still doing well. Going to see M tomorrow. Warm regards to all for a peaceful Sunday.

Winter storm coming though tonight/tomorrow I'm prepared with a slow cooker of bean/ham soup and the final season of the Game of Thrones. Just got it from the library, timing works perfectly. TGoT and snow! Perfect show to watch in a storm.

I went for a ride. It was the first time in a long while so my descent was cautious. My climb back to the top of the hill on which I live went better than expected on my way down. I am definitely doing better since Thursday's ECT.

Have you got an appt with a Pdoc yet? ( maybe you see one, sorry my memory isn’t the greatest ) At least you can start treating the troubling symptoms. What coping skills are you using ? __________________ Helping others gets me out of my own head ~ |

Wow a month ?! If she’s staying in a Disney resort she must have robbed a few banks LOL ! Growing up living just shy of 2 hours away we went often.. I had season passes for years, I did 3 days once but stayed at a hotel about 5 miles away with my daughter so much cheaper when she was 8-9 years old , we actually were able to ride every ride. They just kept raising admission prices /food prices .. I finally quit plus the thrill was gone after going a couple times a month for a few years year. That’s awesome your mom is getting you that series !!! __________________ Helping others gets me out of my own head ~ |
