dyk I also have some errands to run.

Dyk since I'm going to be working on my own, I need a mailbox rental (so I'm not giving out my home address), and a landline or message service. I also need malpractice insurance, since I'm pretty sure my ex boss isn't paying for that anymore lol.

dyk I rocked it out at Sean's psych appt today

dyk she she rattled off the list os SSRI's (anti-depressant) meds that Sean had taken -- suddently, a chart formed in my mind...

dyk and I realized that the SSRI class -- DO NOT WORK FOR HIM and that is what his current med is -- that she wanted to double

dyk and I laid it out for her (adore this lady BTW so laying it out was not a bad/mean thing)

dyk and we now have a different script on a fast tracked dosing schedule

dyk I basically told her that I -- the support structure -- do not have 3 more weeks in me for a med in a class that has proven repeatedly not to work and on the tip of my tongue was my standard line of "you are a specialist -- do something special" but she got there before I had to say it

dyk and that is why I like her. She's very quick and she can infer

dyk I branched out in conversation just a touch and gave the doc some insight into me and how I am handling Sean (or not) and my concerns over what MY job is -- I am trying to shift his care to a "family aspect" and she was incredibly receptive

dyk and I pressed her for information about support groups for ME -- as I am sure that I am not handling Sean well or correctly but bipolar depression is very different than regular ol' depression -- simialr shifting in mind set we are dealing with for Abigail -- who is NOT autistic yet that's what we know about endlessly b/c that's what she presented as and we thought she was.

dyk I am on the website for the support group/community that the doc gave me

dyk it is exactly what I am looking for

dyk there are meetings every 2nd thursday at the hospital that is right around the corner

dyk there are meetings close enough all month long that we could attend twice a week (like AA haha) not that we would -- but they apparently run like clockwork

dyk we've not gone "public" withour bipolar diagnosis

dyk we've not "hidden it" but we have not openly discussed it, I've not blogged, or anything else

dyk immediate family members know, our very closest of friends, I've made some comments but nothing concrete in my facebook statuses and I've talked about it here -- but even though this is a public forum -- "my public" doesn't read it haha
