Psychiatrist Appointment

[lemonflavor]

Please pray again for another new psychiatrist appointment on Tuesday. I saw a new psychiatrist a month ago and she was really uptight and negative. It was so stressful and triggering that I decided to not see her and try another new one.

I really need help with anxiety. It's so bad in the morning I can hardly stand it. The last one put me on Depakote which makes me really depressed so that will probably need to be changed.

I have a long history and I'm afraid he won't have time to adequately get through it.

Please pray that he'll have wisdom from God, will believe what I say and will be able to put me on a course where I would improve. Otherwise that I would be patient and accept what God allows to happen.

THANK YOU.

The appointment went well. He's kind of an old curmudgeon in a way but a very laid back one which is what I need. I had two pages of history and he read it all. That surprised me. He said it was very helpful.

The previous doc I saw practically flipped out when she saw that I take Ativan. Then she was paranoid that I was using her for drugs. I asked the new one what he would recommend for a dose for now and he said, play it by ear. What a difference. I'll be switching to Valium for now because the Ativan is so short acting it clears out of my body at various times during the day. Eventually would like to not be on a benzo but anxiety is so bad right now.

I really wanted to try Neurontin/Gabapentin but he says he doesn't think it does diddly (he used a different word). I think I can convince him to give it a try next time. I can get it through rxoutreach.com.

I'm going to be going off Depakote and onto Lamictal, which he will give me samples of (I got samples of Lexapro too). It's going to be a long three months of building up on this drug. I tried it before but only went up to 100mg. It didn't do a thing. Will be going higher this time. I hope it's worth it.

Thank you for your prayers.
