I am concerned about you making decisions to increase your dosages while your doctor is away, all while you are experiencing a mixed state. If your doctor did not give you the name of a doctor who is covering, find a doctor anyway. A mixed state is not a good time to be making self-medication decisions. You need guidance, someone to sit and talk with. Take care. Keep us posted.My doc's partner finally returned my call two days late. I said I'd been feeling pretty bad but at that moment I was better and that I increased all my meds. He said great,bye. That was Fri. Meanwhile , I crashed and mania is the furthest thing from my mind. Depression with a capital D.
Do you want to know how depression feels? Slow. Deliberate. Unfocused. Aggitated but too stoned to do anything about it. Secret thoughts. Internalizing. Sounds. Hopelessness. Self-absorbed. Janet
