HI Fluffsters and BarbCat!
Good to hear from the two of you. Today as I was making my bed (yes ,making my bed!), I thought, umm I bet I hear from the psychobabbler gals today. And lo and behold here you are.No, Katy, I wasn't in the loop on the social aside. I imagine you weren't in the loop either about the loss of Barb's cat, Merlin and my dog, Rock in July. We were corresponding tons on the grief board for awhile sharing very similar experiences.
I'm sorry to hear about your rapid cycling. You know, I've never rapid cycled so much as when I was on a med that didn't work for me. I really know what that term means just from my experience last year of being on ADs solo. So maybe once you get that med out of your system, you'll be better. Seroquel is still with me. I'm down to 1/4 of 25mg now. I was up to 25mg a night and even 75mg when I was off all meds but the said.
I've been trying to ween myself off. I'm doing better I think. I'm still on the same 450mg Trileptal and 12.5 Paxil and fish oil. Let me know your progress on Sero. Are you still on depakote?Barb cat, good to hear from you. And sorry you're not feeling well. I'm feeling good partly because I took two weeks off of work, quit drinking during that time (took a break), started writing (hopefully a book) about Rock and the tradegy of the Pit Bull breed. You know one thing that makes my mood swing? No outlet for creativity! It's great when it starts flowing. I also bought a piano! Living beyond my means...
How's the new house hunt going? I think I went slightly hypo the other week? maybe. I was planning on flying to Asheville, NC and buy a plot of land from the equity I've already made. I thought about you and thought you should move there too! You'd probably miss the west coast though. How're you doing with Merlin?
take care you two-
Katia
