I slept last night with the 50mg of seroquel!!!!!
I met with my pdoc yesterday:
She said restoril is a sedative and she was not going to prescribe any sedatives to me. She wants me off klonipin because I drink.
She was a bit put off by my telling her what to do...she said I needed to trust her and that she was the doctor. She told me that nurses were the worst people who try to tell her what to do. So it isn't just me!
We discussed my moods and behavior and she doesn't think I have been hypomanic. She just thinks that my addictions are in force, increased drinking and internet usage. Urged me to come up with a plan with my tdoc Robin. She wants me to go to AA and get a sponsor, I won't be doing that. Been to one meeting and that was enough. I also don't want to give up drinking.
She said that I should spend my energy trying to get a handle on my addictions, that they were more harmful to me than the risk of seroquel.
I agreed to take the 50mg of seroquel at night and will start the taper off of klonipin this friday night. 3/4 of .5mg is what she wants me to taper for a month until I see her again.
Thank for your support!
