little better Mood
Monday, July 13, 2009 | A General Update story

Well another late night for me.  I fell asleep today, didn't mean to but now I can't get to sleep.  Nothing new really.   I was started on Geodon during my stay at the hospital last month.  So far so good I think.  I have bad days, think about checking on outtta here but it isn't as often.  They took me off Prozac cold turkey, thinking it was causing me to have mixed episodes.  I do not recommend anyone ever going off cold turkey.  Gave me alot of insight as to how dangerous it is to tinker or not take your meds.  Holy shit as I sit here and type I am having brain zaps from hell, feels like bugs are crawling on me, very dizzy, somewhat anxious over all this but md said "you will feel like shit for a few weeks since the prozac was stopped cold turkey".  Well dear doc, am feeling it bigtime!!!  And just when I think it's over, bam more brain zaps and dizziness.  Felt like shit earlier and fell asleep so now my sleep is off track.  See my pdoc and new counselor this week.  This counsler has more experience with bipolar disorder, wish me luck!
