Your days have been super challenging.
sorry that your mag citrate was disappointing.
It sounds like your pdoc is listening to you.
Are you happy with your visit?
I hope you can get a nap into today.
Thank you for posting.
And you make perfect sense don't worry about that with us...

Just work on getting some sleep. You are doing the best you
can. That is all you can do.

I may not sound odd or off to you guys because you get the benefit of editing. I can’t edit the s- that comes out of my mouth tho...

Whether I smoke or not, there are no naps now. The sedation from the Abilify seems to wear off late in the morning or in the early afternoon, and my manic/hypomanic sx get worse and I can’t relax long enough to even lay down.

Yesterday I wasn’t too bad in the morning. At least I wasn’t experiencing significant psycho-motor agitation. I REALLY wanted to start cleaning, but I knew it would rev me up, so I tried to occupy myself with sedentary things. Overstimulation is a bad thing when I’m like this.
Around 2pm, I was wide awake, on the go again, and in the mood to search for and buy s ton of s- (when I could sit down of course).

This is the first morning since taking the Abilify (5mg last night) that I
haven’t woken up completely out of it. I’m definitely hypo tho. I’m getting my Tysabri treatment right now, and I’m in a f- fantastic mood and have been talking everybody’s ear off about totally random s- lol...
I’m curious to see what will happen/how I will be later in the day.

I have the feeling that the Abilify is only sedating me, but maybe I just need to take the higher dose more consistently. IDK. I will give the 7.5mg a chance to work and see if it’s really making a difference.

Mag, citrate again tonight... so f- excited.

I hope that your infusion goes by quickly today.
