Med game - The People - 09-11-2018
I have been on medication for almost 30 years. It was off and on as eventually everything stopped working.
Over a year ago my PDoc put me on a new Anti-D in the spring. It was working well for a few months. However, during the course of the summer I did nothing but sleep. I blamed it on the fractured ribs and then the weather... My energy would pick up for a bit and then I would sleep again, every time I sat in my chair.
I missed my pdoc appointment so I filled her in via email. She suggested I double the anti-d. After that I realized something. 1)I have a problem with one kidney and the drug discourages using it if there is a disease. We don't know the cause as of yet.
2) I forgot my evening dose of anti-anxiety for 2 days in a row. I am still tired today but my urges to self harm have abated and my mood is actually quite good.
My pdoc isn't so great with DID. And I am so terrible at coping with drugs.

it's difficult when the pdoc doesn't get it. my pdoc only treats my depression. i havent even mentioned DID to him. it would only complicate things.

Mine is supposed to treat my ED but as it was obviously too complex we just focus on meds. We are going back to hear plan. I misunderstood something my doctor clarified today. Meds sucks. Now comes the worry about weight gain.

We ended up listening to Pdoc and she just upped by half. It started to kick in and we ended up doing some heavy work in T this week. As well, someone has come to terms with the fact that we were self medicating with wine and agreed to cut back. It has been building for a while.
