Scott:
I just posted to Detroit Pistons. Pretty much explained 'me'.
Since the nervous breakdown, I'm on Valium 10mg 3x a day, so I'm okay.
Seems again I'm anti-psychotic intolerable.
I gave Trileptal more than a week and my eyes still burned (even treating them w/ plain saline solution) constantly.
I wanted to see a P asap but they shut the door in my face.
An idea .. tricyclics, maybe. Am awaiting to hear back from one of our friends here.
I think I tried Elavil in the past and had a mild initial adverse reaction (was working .. had to be at my desk at 5:45a), and didn't give it even a week.
Checked Net and looks as if Pamelor may be an option.
All these newer ADs .. I just don't trust them I guess. Especially after the ongoing frustration with Effexor-XR.
I'm really happy to have met you here. Don't think we've communicated in past.
My memory isn't all that great. I have a busted back and am on a narcotic 3x a day.
It's cool how comfortable I feel when I'm posting here. I almost forget about the way this 'county system' is really dropping the ball. Maybe this is their way of letting you know right up front that you are a lesser person!
But like I said, just typing how I feel and sharing it w/ so many people that care is the best therapy I have, until I find someone to help guide me, and I think I need to go back. I've never had that kind of therapy. I believe I've hidden from uncomfortable feelings for many years. This isn't traditional therapy anymore. Not a lot of Ts prob' even do it. I'm not even sure what to call it. I do know that the T they staffed me w/ out here is not a good match.
While online, my cell has been right beside me here. I have still not gotten a return call from 'the system' .. and that's to my 9 or 10 messages left.
What are they saying to me???
Oh Racer ... it was you that shared your life in the 'system'. I tried to call my medicare advantage plan insurance earlier re: Ts. My phone line is being changed. I'll call them in a.m. I'm afraid it looks like it will be $30 a visit. I receive $895 a month in SSD. But, I do have $2,000 in savings. Probably would be worth it. Sure would have liked to do something other than pay med or psych bills w/ that tho.
