The tea didn't do much cuz I was too tired. I took two naps.

"Sluggish cognitive tempo (SCT) is a syndrome related to attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) but distinct from it. Typical symptoms include prominent dreaminess, mental fogginess, hypoactivity, sluggishness, staring frequently, inconsistent alertness and a slow working speed"

^ This is my problem

I knew I had "ADD" as a kid but they just call it "ADHD" now so I became confused that it was "ADHD-Predominantly Inattentive". So the thing I'm looking for from stimulants is alertness and focus (Even though people with ADHD can't focus, they hyperfocus on things for a short time - While I don't have the energy to do focus at all).

That sounds good. I like fried cod sandwiches with lettuce and tartar sauce. Omg now I’m hungry.

I can’t sleep. I’m too hyped and feel amazing. I’m up listening to music, playing games and researching stuff online.

Am too unexperienced in life to write a book.. I think I'll try one day - But I should form ideas together to make collections of papers.. Like maybe to help people..

Idk what that would be called? Idk.. But the ideas will come from the deep realms in my mind..

I'll stay on the same meds until I move to the island - Then lower the injection and maybe add a mood stabilizer that can help with agitation..

Anyways imma sleep. Mush day over. Zopiclone night, hypnotized into the dream world..

Good morning, everybody! So glad to be with you. I enjoy your posts so much. I know I don't say a lot sometimes, but I'm feeling quite a bit & mostly gratitude to have these forums, & I learn a lot from many of you. Anyway, I've enjoyed my morning coffee this morning. I haven't eaten anything yet. I'll probably have Cheerios. I hope you all have a good day today. Thank you!!

I almost blasted into the atmosphere vaping. 12mg is a lot after another 2week lockdown. I hope my new stuff gets to me soon. I might sleep until 3.

I dropped my phone twice overnight and I'm really lucky I didn't break the screen. I guess I'll listen to the news again. I'm very nostalgic about 2014.

Talked with the psychiatrist. Different than the one I talked to before which is good. She seems nice and not condescending.

Anyway we talked, she got the gist of what was happening, went through history, and suggested we taper off the Abilify.

I asked her what she thought of a diagnosis and she said she agrees with bipolar and psychotic disorder, but she could sum it up as schizoaffective so there’s that.

Feeling tired today. And bored. I'm at work but yeah, not much happening. Although I wouldn't be doing much at home either. I filled out the paperwork to see the new psychologist. I have to mail it to him I guess as I am going to see him telehealth. Not sure how this is all going to work out.

I feel so good on my new med combos, I can’t wait to tell my psychiatrist next time we talk. I was doing really bad for awhile.

The psychiatrist was looking through my file and apparently around this time last year I also went off my meds for a bit thinking they were poison.

Hmmm interesting.

I filled out paperwork so I could see a new psychologist. I feel really effed up after writing down all the medications I take and my diagnosis and things like that. It's making me feel negatively about myself.

Kit, you are not the one who diagnosed you & prescribed those meds. If the reader(s) of forms want to judge anyone, they have to know it shouldn't be you. Maybe your new therapist will be glad you were so thorough & appreciate all the information to help with decisionmaking with a brand new client?
