If hes going over again, they may just be more than friends. Unless hes really young, then he could just be bored.

I hear ya! This change was in the works, we were holding out one more month on my Abilify before this change to prevent change for the sake of change. Also, I agree with hospital pdocs screwing with stuff, last time I was in the hospital I was on Latuda and Lithium. I left on like 3 new meds and off of Latuda and almost off of Lithium. When my pdoc found out she was angry by what they had done.
Thanks for this!

Yeah, the hospital pdoc's are awful here. I'm glad your pdoc really seems to have a good handle on your meds and changes.

I wish Tapatalk had a UI for the ignore feature. Sometimes I just need some time away from upsetting things. Although, I will say I haven't ignored anyone in ages, probably close to two years. Anyway the full website isn't practical for some of us who mainly use Tapatalk on our phones.

I don't mind him going as so far the parents have been home. I do worry about sex being so young but I trust him to do the right thing.

Yeah I use tapatalk too and getting anywhere is a pain in the ***. I've never ignored anyone because I'm just here and sometimes the med forum.

I loved my hospital Pdoc. He got me on the right track med wise. Even called up my old provider and have her an earful about the meds she had me on. I know he did it because he did it with me and my husband in the room. I was totally mismanaged med wise. It explains why I was getting worse. Anyway I'm sorry your hospital pdocs suck.

I have a dog who is very protective. So much so that we can't really have anyone over so it sucks with the kids friends and all.
Hope you have a great time and continue to feel better.

Thanks for your kind words. Yeah it can be a pain sometimes but I suppose it's not all bad because he's only trying to protect the "pack" and I prefer a dog that would protect me rather than run away if I ever got attacked.
Thanks for this!
