Sick
This upcoming week is my last week of college classes…thank God! I actually don’t have too much to do. I have my thesis defense on Tuesday (but I can’t really prepare for that) and some reading due on Wednesday, and then two relatively short papers due by May 10th at the latest. I plan on having everything done by Saturday afternoon so I can be ( Read more... )

i'm sorry about your head cold. i hope you feel better soon. <3
i am glad you are going to see a different psychiatrist... and i'm kind of glad you're going off the abilify. a big piece about recovery (or stasis) is learning to trust your body, and coming to know that you can eat quite a bit and maintain your weight. normally, you would be able to maintain your weight or a lower weight eating double the amount you're eating... so it's awful how the med is screwing things up, but have faith- you're gonna find another way. as that site i linked to you demonstrated, there are a bunch of other meds out there you can try. don't worry.
your thesis will be fine, i just know it. i think after you're done with school, you might want to consider telling your advisor that it would have helped if she had given you some positive feedback. not having any makes you feel like you don't have direction, i bet.

I do hope that I can find an alternative to Abilify. I just keep thinking that it's not like I've been on it my whole life, or even the whole duration of my illness (I've only been on it for not even two-and-a-half years, although in some ways that still feels like a lifetime!), so obviously there was a point when I didn't need it to survive and function.
I really hope the thesis defense goes well tomorrow. I'm so nervous!
Thanks. <3
