Well, I'm still around...and so groggy and drugged out on Seroquel right now...I had to come in to work for a while, I should stay, but I can't...and my pdoc told me to stay home...I just hate that my boss knows I'm having another episode...but I'm sick, not crazy...so I need to accept that...I am still agitated, but not nearly as much, so the Seroquel is working...I picked up the samples from my pdoc yesterday, left her office, and cried myself silly...I hate this so much...I really do...my pdoc is filling out some sick leave request forms for me, so I won't have to have leave without pay this month.

Keli, I'm so sorry you're having such a tough time. You've had a really rough go of it for a while now, and I really hope it starts to quiet down for you. Believe me, I know, as I'm sure most if not all of us do, how horrible it is to feel how you're feeling. Take the Seroquel and rest, and I hope your mind can quiet down for you. I'll send you good thoughts, and pray that the negative and manic thoughts go away and give you some peace.

Love,
Kristen

Keli,


I'll keep my fingers crossed AND pray that the Seroquel helps--I know several of my friends from our old local support group, swear by it.


Try not to feel guilty about taking off--you are sick, not malingering, but I understand, I used to be one the idiots who'd go in with a 102 degree temp and then would work from when they insisted I leave.

Keli-

I am very concerned about you. I know what you mean about the Seroquel making you hung over. I am back on the Seroquel also to help me sleep. I have a cold right now so I am not feeling well physically either. I really hope you start to feel better. Please know you are in my thoughts and in my prayers always. Hang in there girl. You have my e-mail addy if you need me.

Tina~

I hope things get better for you really soon. I don't have much to add but I'm here for you.
