If you hadn't posted it bobby, I would have, someone had to mention it.
 I am worried about you waves, I hope you're able to get it under control, NO job is worth doing that to yourself. This was the first mention I've seen of the daytime drinking, but I know that must have taken a LOT of courage on your part to own up to, so you do acknowledge that there is a problem, just know that we LOVE YOU and want the best for you so please keep us posted and please talk to pdoc about it, this comes from love and I hope you don't get angry about bobby and I posting about it. She and I are just afraid you're getting into trouble with it.

hi
i am not frank about alcohol to my parents - it worries them, but i answer direct questions truthfully, and sometimes drink at home. i do not like to talk about it on forum but occasional mentions keeps the picture straight for you guys. thanks for cautioning me... but also don't worry.... pdoc knows all the gory details. ~ waves ~ |

Okay that's all I needed to know waves, thank you for your candid honesty. I still am worried though about this job situation, I hope you're able to score a teaching gig soon.
 Big hugs to you waves!~

pdoc agreed about the increase in depakote from 1000 to 1200, and says to go up again to 1500 on wednesday.
if that doesn't settle things i might try a lithium + depakote balanced. have to ask him about that. lithium has worked before in combination. but i won't do lithium if they won't draw labs regularly and the stupid state has stuid laws about stupid (in)frequency for that stuff. but it sure seems like a lot of stufff!!!! i've never been at 1200mg depakote before let alone 1500!!!  ~ waves ~ |

Dear Waves,
Take the Depokote as he suggests. We want you well. Two days of the raised dose this weekend will be good for you. How about more of the benzo? Esp. for the am when you seem to be most wired up about the boss? Actually, I wonder if I am right? Are you more likely to have bad encounters with him in the am or pm. Or maybe take the short acting benzo just before lunch. (Anyway, you can figure out the timing --- I'm throwing that out there to remind you of your med options. Be well.  Be safe.   M. |

One thing I've learned is that you can't change how other people act, only how you react to them. If you have a medical condition, medical or mental that you are getting treatment for, and it affects your mood, then in most cases you should be all right as long as you let HR know you are in treatment for your disorder and it has ramifications to your mood, or the meds do. Of course, this depends on the size of the company as small companies are exempt from some of the rules that apply to larger ones. I've found that when I was working, saying that "yes, I'm working on this, this, and that, which would you prefer me to prioritize first" may help. Also, the deep breathing also helps but I don't know how it would affect you.
