In reply to I let my pdoc down, posted by Deneb on July 14, 2009, at 23:06:11
> I have a list of things to do, but this past week I did nothing on the list. I volunteered and it was more tiring than I had anticipated. My pdoc asked me how many hours I volunteered and I said about 4 hours a day. I get there early to eat the free food and enjoy a concert though so it takes about 6 hours not including travel time. She said I should be able to do more in a day. She asked me what I did during the rest of the time. I told her I was usually sleeping.

> She thinks the Risperdal might be too sedating for me so she reduced my dose. Anyways, I feel like I let her down. I need to do more in a day. I think I'm just lazy.

> I think she thinks I'm lazy. I sleep a lot, like 12 hours a day. She says that is not normal.

>Doesn't sound like you are letting her down, she just sounds concerned that she has you on too many meds... and if you need 12 hours a day thats a good indicator that you might be on too high a dose.
