    • Rainbow

      From allfordogs September 24

      Here's a rainbow-somethign to aim for. it'll take awhile for your meds to be able to kick in again, in the mean time do you have a support group/friends? Do what you have to take care of yourself-whether it be sleep or whatever. Maybe start seeing your therapist (if you have one)-especially now. I know when I'm not on my meds-I have vivid dreams (not happy ones). Do you have someone that can help you get through this time?
