So, I saw my new psychiatrist today, who is from England and has a great accent and is really very nice. He actually read part of what he wrote in his file about me, which was both awkward and kinda cool to hear.
Anyway, we are going to be changing my medicine to see if I can be stable on something else and lose weight. But he doesn't change medicine in winter because people get so depressed, and he said moreso in Vermont than when he was in Rhode Island. And he's going to try me on lithium, which I actually took before.
If I understand correctly he's willing to try lithium and if that doesn't work tegretol, and if those don't work then it's back on the Seroquel. Lithium has it's own side effects and issues but weight gain isn't one of them.
Have some old working incandescent bulbs to donate.
I'd take 'em. I hate compact fluorescents!
Yeah PC does tons of cool stuff. But "learn new things" I meant more like, learn new behaviors or ways of how you interact with the world.
edit because there's no actual link
Problem is a lot of the incandescents are not standard. Tiny fancy ones for chandliers. Or big spotlight thingies. I don't even know what they were for.
Thanks, my Beverly. That's nice.
I am SO tired I can't sit up straight, just waiting for toilet time for Aidan (I could swear that was an Ernie book). The concert went well, except that Aidan was autistic, and when he made his funky noises, some of the kids around Kara also made the noises, and she felt they were mocking him and got sad. And then, at the end, all the 5th graders are coming off the stage, and I'm watching, and I'm watching, and of course, she's the last one off, and at least 25 feet behind. Still, they played recognizable music, which was not what I was led to expect from the note home asking for parental support at the concert.

Ooops. Didn't get that. I read "learn new things" as "get a hobby"-type stuff.
Java, I hear you on the recruiting, but sadly I only get recruited to do what I do now, and I dont really want that. Though I found out today one of my favorite people at the company is leaving, so I may look up where she goes...

They might be floods for ceiling fixtures. I could use both, if so; I'm sure I'm not the only one with those annoying ceiling spotlights. You could FreeCycle them.
Thank you for all the comforting support. I copied and pasted a bunch of comments and sent them to DH. It is harder on him than me in many ways. I was a wild teen and turned responsible while DH had irresponsible parents and had to man up at an early age. He really blames himself and believes he did something wrong while I honestly believe my boys hit the dad lotto.
Good to hear you liked the new psychiatrist askye.
What do you want to do instead, meara?
