I hope your pdoc calls tonight, if not please get in touch with your therapist. These are much better options than the hospital (sorry I haven't had the great experiences others have, but mine were involuntary admits- and that's a whole lot different). Since you're rapid cycling (bp 2?), meds are very difficult, and moods can change rapidly when your therp or shrink leaves for vacation. Have you ever had a drug holiday? I only recommnend them with support of a dr., and gradual tapering- but for some people (including me) they can be a wonderful thing. Something to think about when your doc returns, until then get your support together and don't tempt fate- I've done what you did with the meds and liquor and landed in ICU for a few days, then a psych ward- it was not pleasant. If you need to make a pact with your doc or therp to stay safe until they return, then do so. take care of yourself- judy
