#took the initiative to schedule a meeting with my psychiatrist#to tell her the meds really Are Not Working#they’ve made life better in some ways but I’m still so out of control emotionally#she suggested sleep aids which I took bc holy fuck why not. I spend $20 for a box of zzzquill and she prescribed a MONTHLY supply for $3#but she was like that’s it your sleep improving will help your mental health and it’s like wait no#I sleep fine most days I’ve just been going through it recently. and the symptoms still persist.#and then showed her all the research I did on how lithium is often combined with my current med to effectively treat bipolar disorder#and she tried to steer me down a couple other paths but was like well yeah lithium IS the golden standard#so now ya boy is on lithium and I’m praying to god this fixed things lol#since it’s being used as a supplement to our primary treatment I don’t need all the ridiculous testing#since you gotta get the levels JUST right in your blood stream#but here’s hoping it all works. I feel like I’m running out of options.
