Gosh.
I am so, so sorry, Jay.
I wish that I had something smart to say. Your plate is much fuller than mine. I admire your perseverance in the face of such tragedy, especially with the many years of suffering that came before. You must be naturally resilient. It is a gift that will help you get through this bad time.
I don't know if you qualify, but there is a relatively new mental illness diagnosis of "complicated grief". Treatment includes specialized psychotherapy.

What has been your history of diagnoses?
Are you bipolar or is there any history of bipolar anywhere in your family? I am curious about the Prozac/Zyprexa combination.
Can you give a more detailed description of what you experience? What symptoms give you the most trouble?
Is there any PTSD going on? How do you sleep? Do you have nightmares?
Why was Geodon chosen?
You'll be okay. It might take some time, but I think you'll get there.
Homework:
1. Complicated grief
2. PTSD and complicated grief
3. Developmental PTSD
4. Prazosin as a treatment for PTSD
