I am so happy for you about the new job. What do you do? And while having to move to a different province (especially in such a short time!) is definitely overwhelming-making, I think it's going to be great for you. Like someone posted above, new doctor, new ideas.
It seems to me like your current pdoc ought to be able to refer you to a new doc where you are going. Can't he do that? It just doesn't seem right that you have to start all over and wait months again. Can you ask him to give you a referral?
Yeah, the Zyprexa was awful. I had been in recovery for about two months, tried the Zyprexa for a week and was binging everyday again by the third day on it. After going off it, I was back in recovery within 3 or 4 days. "Let's just see about that depression, honey, and then you go on home and worry about your eating disorder on your own time." Jacka**es.
