Hi everyone,
Saw the doc yesterday to follow up on my new meds (Tegretol and Desipramine). I told him that I thought I was doing better the first few days, but lately I'd been getting very tired by noon every day, which made me depressed. The mood swings and anger were returning also. He said rather than put me on the Lithium right now, he wanted to try one more med. So now were trying Paxil for awhile. We stopped the Teg and Desip. He said he'd rather have me moody and angry than having those thoughts of stepping off in front of a train again. I agreed. My anxiety is still out of control and Xanax has become a way of life for me. If anyone is taking or has taken Paxil, please tell me about it. I'm such a pain.....
He gave me a reference to a Psychotherapist which I will call today for an appt. I think it's time. My concern about therapy is that it's going to open a great big can of worms and I'm going to end up with even more crap to deal with than I already have. Don't know if I can handle that....
Oh well, another day in the life.... Thanks for letting me babble.
A peaceful day to all,
Greg
