The last few days have been good. I have slept 4-6 hours, not the 10-15 hours I was doing. I've been tired, but actually have energy, desire, and motivation to do things. It's been nice. I'm not worried about how I'm going to get through the day and night. I just do. I'm wondering if I'm finally starting to see more benefits of the ketamine and tms treatments.
Seems like these most recent med changes have done wonders. I went up from 5mg to 10mg of abilify and went down from 40mg to 30mg of latuda. I only changed doses 4 or 5 days ago so time will tell. I'm still on 60mg of Cymbalta and 300mg of Lamictal. We are going to try going down on Lamictal next from what I understand. My psychiatric np thought I was on it for depression, but the only thing I know for sure is that it made me irritable last time I went down on it. She says the meds I was on before could've caused me to be irritable. So we'll see what happens. I'm hoping I can get off both the Lamictal and latuda. So we'll see what happens.
Supposedly the more psychiatric meds you're on the higher the risk for birth defects. Still don't know if I'll end up having another child or if I'll pursue fertility treatment again, but I've been thinking about it. Lately it hasn't been so hard to look at babies on the TV, it's more made me want another one. I'll take that as a sign of healing.
