Life on meds

Health and Recovery

I been offline because my phone went blank some weeks ago. I had to jump some hoops to get this phone. It’s not on but I can connect still…plus my music oh my music I love…

I have been on
.5 mg of zyprexa(olanzapine) for…almost a week.
I finally took it upon myself to get my meds .
It Just took a phone call since the order was previously placed(but never picked up)
The day after taking it I felt energized. I don’t know if it was the absence of weed or the meds. Far as the irritability I guess it toned down slightly.

So far I competed 5/25 intensive outpatient classes(3hrs each). They focus on drugs and psy. I like my counselor and the people there is welcoming. I go back tomorrow and Thursday,M»T.
I haven’t went this week because I got caught up but tomorrow…yea. Also through my insurance I’m able to get picked up dropped off/ round trip there and back. I don’t have to even walk to the bus stop. I nice little discreet van comes to my rescue. I Still have weed in my system but I’m trying to shake it.

I need to follow up with my psychiatrist to up the dosage.

Still unemployed but there’s a job at family dollar with my name on it… today they called me…but my availability is kinda ehhh so I’ll call her back tomorrow. I hate to come this far since July 4th just to hit the wall of availability…

Anyways time to venture out…

    You’re doing great. I’m trying to quit the alcohol. My effort is helped by the fact that both of the only two stores in town that sold beer have closed.
