Mixed Episode- Strange Feelings

A couple days ago, I was at the store. An unfamiliar feeling befell me: my eyes began to tingle then my nose and a tear rolled down next to my nose. Simultaneously I began to grin widely and laugh at myself.

Finally off Zyprexa!!

My pnurse called today to straighten out my meds because the pharmacy was confused about what some of my doseages were supposed to be.

She asked what id been taking in terms of zyprexa. I said half a 2 1/2 for quite a while. "So you've basically weaned yourself off' she replied. "Let's keep it that way." I was so happy to finally hear these words! She then said to keep all other (psych) meds the same. Baby steps. I am happy!

Lamictal so far / Spider Hallucination

Today I've taken 12 doses of Lamictal. In 3 days I change to 50 mg instead of 25. No side effects so far- cross fingers.

Today I was at Starbucks talking with a friend on the phone. I looked up at the table in front of me to see big spider legs creeping from below. It went back nelow before I could see its whole body. That's the biggest spider I've seen to date.

I also still on 1.25 of Zyprexa.
