Hi,
It's so hard to say how my mood state is because 1. I've quit drinking and 2. I'm sick.
I tried to go to a dinner party tonight but I had to leave early. Feeling sick and exhausted AND I wasn't drinking.
Once I finish up with this cold, I'll be able to assess more what's up for me.
I'm titrating down on the Dep. (now at 500mg) and upping the Lamictal (at 25mg now). It's such a slow schedule and I'm gaining weight. I think it's the Depakote, I'd rather quit quicker than the pdoc has me doing. Two weeks at 500mg and then two weeks at 250mg! No one goes that slowly. he's driving me mad. I think I'll take the situation into my hands and go quicker. I'll be careful with the Lamcital tho' - won't do anything w/o consulting with him. But the depakote, I'm done with.
We'll either try Li. or Tri. with me if the lam. doesn't do it on its own.
good to hear it's all working for you! fingers crossed here!
Katia
