Hi there Dan!
Yes things are looking up in respect to the clinic and the team worker who has been assigned to me. The clinic is for post traumatic shock which thinking back, I have had an waful lot happen in the past, back to childhood, so next Friday I will begin my new adventure there. I guess I will have weekly appointments to attend but that's not so bad, it's not that far away either and easy for me to get to by public transport when the need arises. I need a car of my own. Maybe I'll win the sweepstakes or something!!!!
Sorry to hear your mother was schizophrenic. Did you find it hard as a child to live like that, I mean, was it hard at times? Sorry to ask, but I just wonder what it's like for my kids. They are 10 & 8 (the ones that live with me). I know it has had some effect on my 10 yr old and sometimes I wish I could see out of his eyes and interpret how he sees things with me the way I am.
So you did a course on pharmacology or studied it yourself?
I thought you were all doctors the way you knew all that stuff, I was thinking "WOW" but I do still think that anyway.
Panic and depression is awful. For me, one minute I'm one way the next I'm the other and I don't know where it comes from. I wake each mornign wondering what it's going to be like, then I think I get worked up with the anticipation of it. Not nice at all!!!!
I was told by my Tworker that people that suffer with post traumatic shock are prescribed Zyprexa so I'm on the right med at last!!!
What meds do you take?
Well better go and do some chores (yuk) and I will keep you posted on all the latest. You to me tooo O.K
Thanks again!!!!!!
