In reply to Re: I saw my pdoc on wed.., posted by Zyprexa on March 7, 2015, at 23:41:50
So I called my pdoc again yesterday. Said what I was doing and to call if she has any problems with it. 9am the secretary called and was not sure about what I had said. So I told her I was taking 20mg olanzapine and 3x 8mg perphenazine. Said she was going to give message to pdoc. I never heard back, so.. I guess thats good?
I'm wondering if I should be seeing her more often? She had told me to come back in 3 months though. I couldn't make it on that reduced dose. I lasted about 3 weeks.
This all dates beck to Nov. when I told her I took 20mg z a few times out of desperation. I never asked for a script though. Thinking I could do with 15mg. I was wrong.
I just feel like she wants me on less... Maybe she is over that now. Thinking I will be fine with out meds. After the total wash out she wanted me to go through 3 years ago. Because I was doing ok at the time so lets tri to go with out! I knew it was going to be a bad idea, because of everytime in the past that I went off meds or lower doses. Never works out and I pay the price. Lost jobs, or lost friendships, or lost sanity. Ending up in mental hospital. Everytime I change my meds something about me changes. Why don't they get it?? ..Not to mention all the self medicating.. Which is what I did before all this psychiatry. Then I stoped all the drinking and drugs and ended up in mental hospital, a year later, because I would not take the meds they were telling me to take. Taking meds ever since.
Some reseach I did.. Found out that stiff muciles is a side effect of AP's. Risperdal was the first AP I took. Every time I took it I got frozen muciles from it. Guess thats why I was not taking my meds in the first place. Also probably why I ended up in mental hospital in the first place. Because I was out side in the cold frozen muciles. I could not move. My dad found me and brought me to the hospital. They did some test and told me I had to sign into the mental hospital or they would do it for me. So I went to mental hospital for 3 months. Then anouther 3 months because when I got out I felt fine and would not take my meds. Which I think were the same ones as before. So why would they give those? Stiff mucils, right. So I moved back to US and they still wanted me on risperdal. Once again I was stiff on couch and couldnt move. Finaly they put me on zyprexa. Well every thing changed then. Been taking it ever since, 17 years now. And doing great! So why do they want me off it now. I learned in the past that every time I go off it I fuck up, bad.. I thought the problem was that I didn't take my meds. Well now I do and they want me off them all the time. WTF!
