Hi Matt:
>>> my mom will put off, if i try to call the danm office my self she will call them back and cancel it, and then slap me. <<<
--- If you are a 18 years' old, then in my knowledge, your Mom has NO authority to intercept your appt. with the pdoc. Even, some of pdocs. do NOT allow his/her parents to get into his/her office. Partly, like your case, some of those parents asking 'too many' questions over 'choosing' psycho. meds. for his/her 'almost' grown children. However, in my guess, your Mom has some 'concern' over your psycho. med.'s selection, particualrly if she has NO good knowledge about those 'potent' med. like the Zyprexa. Even, she might think, just those 'crazy' people taking an A.P. When I went to the local M.I. support, one of parents upset SO much over rx of the Zyprexa for her daughter's condition. Then, I wouldn't be surprised your Mom's reaction once you have gotten an A.P., Zyprexa.
In my suggestion, ... just hand her a best available information regarding the Zyprexa for the family's peace and harmoney's sake. Absolutely, NO verbal fight allowed at this moment, seeing your current mental condition. But, I'm guessing that your Mom is happy about your indepedence to deal with your problem all by yourself, not bothering your parents.
Also, one more thing to add is those 'powerful' meds. are quite expensive, ... then try to get along with your parents at the best you can.
H.G.
