> I've gone down from 300mg to 75mg so far and may have to go cold turkey next. My soon-to-be-ex hubby stole all my medications (including for my cold!) along with my drivers license, visa/debit card, and my jewelry. None of my meds were anything he would enjoy. I can only guess he took them because he wants me to fall apart.

> He's doing a pretty good job of it. It's too early for refills. I don't know what to do.
>Couple of thoughts:
1) Quitting meds in the middle of high stress isn't very wise unless they're causing problems - and if that is the case, a change in meds might be better than quitting. Also if you Doc changes meds, then the too early rule to refill does not apply.
2) You may be able to get samples from your Doc.
3) If you are in crisis, you can go to your local MHMR crisis center, psychiatric emergency room and they'll probably help you if you can't afford to just buy it yourself.
4) Change your locks if your about to be ex is bugging you. If he comes around, call 911 and let the police sort it out, don't you try to do it.
5) Having a good therapist can be very helpful at times like these.Hope this helps,
Byron
