I attended my appointment with my psychiatrist yesterday and he's changing my meds from Quetiapine 50mg twice a day to Olanzapine 5mg.
I've already had a couple of people tell me about their experiences with the medicine, so will see how it affects me and get back to you.
If you or someone you know has been on this medication, please drop me an email - catherinejw@hotmail.com
I spoke to my psychiatrist about a number of things, including driving, he would have let me do my driving lessons.
I also spoke to him about my experience with my psychologist which hasn't gone too well as you can read here..
My boyfriend came with me to explain the psychotic episodes I've been experiencing after I saw my psychologist.
I've finally discharged myself from my psychologist so I will be going to counselling with Teamwork Trust in Corby to see if they can help me. I already attended the Kettering one and saw an incredible counsellor there, so if anyone is local to Kettering, Northamptonshire, definitely phone up and try and see Cathy, she really helped me when I was first diagnosed and ever since then too.
Even just hearing her voice today has made my day!!
I'll keep you updated on all things recovery and mental health related.
Thanks for reading, hope you're all doing well.
