Lamictal started to mellow the phase outs. I adhered a bit better to the here and time became fuller. I was less exhausted.
This is what I function like any day:
I may drive two or three blocks and not notice much of what I did. My daughter told me I took a left turn on red, I didn't know I was driving the car!
Avoided driving for a while but keep getting yelled at by everybody, psychiatrist included who calls it phobia of driving. I just go missing in my 'fog' every now and then at random. Not provoked by anything I can tell.
I watched an airplane above skipping a considerable stretch of sky, that is a rare moment of me getting direct feedback from the environment like that. Most of the time I just have a vague fuzzy feeling, start a crescendo of yawns, or things don't look familiar anymore, I get confused.
Vision therapy had me do these hand/eye coordination routines, or looking through red/green filters, that gave me instant feedback on onset and duration of input shutting down. I'm there, but half of me is out to lunch.I'll ask about Trileptal and Topamax next appt. Thank you Ed,
bimini
