He's pretty nice, kinda dry but nice. We're going to start weaning me off of the lamictal slowly and see what happens. He asked me if I thought it was helping but I couldn't tell him since I went from Seroquel to lithium & lamictal with no break. So, tomorrow I'll drop my dose by 1/2. I see him again in a month to see how I'm handling the lower dose of lamictal and if all is going well then I'll come off of it. He doesn't want to overlap meds which I am happy about it.
That's really it. I have therapy tonight as well so needless to say it's going to be a draining day for me.
Hugs to All

That's great Danielle.

Thanks Sheri Ann.
I think he see's that I am realistic. He asked me if my goal was to get off of meds totally, Did I think that could be done? I told him in a dream, yes, In reality no. I'd like to believe that it's possible but I'm not going to jade myself either. In terms of the anxiety I'd like to treat it until I can develope some good coping skills where xanax, klonopin, whatever become a very small part of my life. I have work to do but I knew that going into this.
Gotta leave for therapy in a bit.
