Just need to vent...

I talked to tdoc yesterday about my rage issues that have cropped up in the past week. And unfortunately she told me the one thing I did not want to hear - and that was to call pdoc and see if I can get something short-term to get me through all this court business as that seems to be the root of the rage. Well, xh more than court but it's all tied together.


I really don't want anymore meds, but at the same time I can't continue on as I have been this week. I have to maintain composure on the bus - there's no 2 ways about that and it's getting increasingly difficult to do as the rage gets worse. I've got the klonopin, but the last 2 times I've taken it I've wound up depressed. I don't know if it's coincidence or if the klonopin throws me too far in the other direction.


Yesterday I started on the 2 x day dose of the lithium. I'm hoping that helps and that pdoc will let me have a couple of days to see if that will be enough to calm me down. Keep your fingers crossed for me.


Both tdoc and I agree that the sooner this mess with my ex is resolved the better I will be. So all I need to know now is how long I'll have to wait for the court date. So that's the other call I have to make today - I have to call my lawyer and get an answer to that question.


Ok, I think I'm done venting now;) Thanks for listening.

I hope that the meds work for you. I know it is a rough time for you, just be patient and the meds some time to do its job. Hope today goes better for you.

Huggs,

Thank you all for your support. I talked to pdoc and she said to wait for the lithium to kick in would be taking a chance so in the short term she is prescribing me ativan for the day time and still wants me to take the klonopin at night if i need it. So, here's hoping the ativan does the trick.


I also talked to my attorney's office and the assistant said the motion will hopefully be filed on Monday. She doesn't know how long it will be after that that the actual court date will be and couldn't hazard a guess, so I've got to wait until at the very earliest monday afternoon to find out. For those of you who don't know me very well, waiting is not my strong suit. LOL!


I hope you all have a good weekend:)


Hugs,
Traci
