Another update, this time on ME!

BubblyToes

I saw my psychiatrist on Monday.  I liked him.  He made me feel comfortable.  He didn't make me feel like I was being judged as I described to him my whole sordid year.

He doesn't seem to think I show any bipolar tendencies.  His initial diagnosis was that I've been on Zoloft for 5 years, it seems to have run it's course.  He also thinks that the things that have happened to me over the last two years could cause anyone to have a nervous breakdown.  And he did tell me that I did the right thing by seeking help for it.

He changed me over to Lexapro, and gave me a script for Ativan for when I go into panic mode.  I haven't had to take it until tonight, the whole dad stress kind of pushed me a bit.

BUT, this time tomorrow I will be floating the Atlantic.  M and I are going on a 5 day cruise, just the two of us.  I think it is most definitely needed.  I am verreh excited.
