Not much new going on to report. I saw my psychiatrist a couple weeks ago, and we talked about lowering my meds. She seemed concerned that I didn't have any variance in my moods. I admit I have not had any manic days and no depressed days since I started Zyprexa in November or December. Every day is pretty much the same. She thought maybe if we lowered the dose slightly I could have that variance while still keeping the mania and depression at bay. I am currently on 10 mg and she talked about lowering it to 7.5 mg. I started on 5 mg but that was not enough, so then we went right to 10 mg.
She doesn't want to change up my meds now because we are getting ready to go on vacation in a couple weeks so she is waiting til my next visit to do any tweaking. We may or may not do anything at that time. We shall see.
That's about all for now. I go see my therapist for the first time in a few months in about a week. It should be an interesting visit!
