I need more anti-anxiety med in the am, a little less in the afternoon, and I don't take anything in the evening because of that 600mg pm dose of Seroquel.
I actually told her what BF had to say about being careful with the benzo's. Obviously she agreed, and she thinks he's a very smart guy
We talked about alternatives to benzos on my last visit, but not yesterday. I still like to have control... I'd like to get back to where I was before my last hospital visit. I was managing my anxiety better and was averaging 1mg of Xanax a day. I'm a long way off right now though.

We also talked about my OCD. She said that we might have to start talking about treatment for that sometime in the future, but I shut that down. I won't take anything for OCD unless it's to the point where it's handicapping because the treatments will leave me too vulnerable to mania. I was adamant about that.
