I feel better now.. Drinking chamomile to relax.
I lied down and listened to a podcast about ketamine. I told my mom about Spravato (Esketamine) and she thinks it's a good idea to ask my psychiatrist about it - Just to lift my mood, get off of phenibut and prevent suicidal ideation etc.. I'm just juggling so many thoughts in my head and put a lot of pressure on myself. |

Not to suggest anything to the contrary of taking Spravato, but one provider I tried to get ketamine from for my depression said that it would interact negatively with having a history of psychosis. So just be prepared that they might say that. I honestly think it's kind of stupid that they said that to me - that it was contraindicated or whatever because I have a history of psychosis. My regular psychiatrist was the one who recommended it. And this other ketamine provider was the one who said it was contraindicated. I trust my primary psychiatrist more. I just thought it was kind of silly that even though my primary psychiatrist recommended it, the people at the secondary clinic said no. But oh well.

Having trouble getting Interest in my new ikebana Instagram…..I still find it fascinating but I was hoping to share it with more people. I think some of it is my photography which isn’t traditional. Plus Instagram wants everything to be a square and it’s cutting off my photos. Also most of the ikebana people are in Japan so everything happens at night. I wonder if there are US ikebana groups because there is also a language barrier.

I feel great today, I feel like it’s a combo of the new ikebana hobby and sun and less sleep…9 hrs vs 11 hrs.

Man therapy was just dredging up old stuff and it brought me down big time. Too bad. Just did a self care drawing but I still feel drained.

I have a video appointment with my psychiatrist tomorrow morning.
It's really cold today, I took a nap with Stash. I talked to the vet, they said all together with their low-cost spaying program: a spay, shots, and exam would come to a total of $200. So I'm going to do that in March

I'll let him know that I've self medicated with it in 2019 (30-50mg every 1-2 weeks for 3 months) which stopped my dissociation. The last time I used it was in December of 2020 and that was the last time I felt manic/psychotic (I was watching south park which freaked me out) - I took 0.5mg of clonazepam and was better before the olanzepine kicked in. I'm just going to let him know all of these things and be completely honest. I just want to stop using phenibut and prevent agitated dysphoria/sui thoughts. If he says no, then there should be better options. He just wants to help me. I took some phenibut today though and had the best day skiing. Nice sunny day! I'll post the panoramas here later =] |

I'm lucky that stimulants don't give me psychosis and I wonder if it's my perception towards them.. Like they fit a puzzle in my reality by making me focused - I think a lot of people with them, focus on their paranoia/delusions. Weed can make me paranoid though because it decreases my focus (But also makes me see things in a different way). And then I think about Newtus - Wouldn't need a DMT trip. Something about creativity.. being able to channel both worlds (Like you) which I've struggled with.. But me going from the patterned brain to the unpatterned brain. I was born with high neuroplasticity and it was all suppressed by abuse. The only thing for my brain to eventually do was PRUNE.. Dead neurons! The Abilify made my impulsivity much worse (Partial dopamine agonist) - It's like my brain was teased with dopamine but not actually getting it? Idk what I'm talking about nvm.. But if your mind gets worse, maybe a new antipsychotic could be an option. You're dealing with a lot of stress and grief and with people that have adhd or any mental illness, - stress is the worst thing. Doing healthy balanced things in life is what we all need such as exercise, diet, socialization, meaning, sleep, etc.. all of that stuff.. We are like plants. But we are happy plants. |
