Update: Just keeping track…. To me from me C x

I am feeling like enough is enough tonight, nothing any of us do can shift Mollys resistance to getting up… if that is what is presenting. Nothing I did or said or didn’t do or say changed the low mood today. A visit from a family friend broke the negativism for a while, Molly laughed…

Tracey B Today a special friend would have been 64 but sadly we lost her way way too soon 3 years ago. I still have the baby blanket she bought for Molly 27 years ago and when I went to see Molly tonight she was in her bed resting with a different blanket Tracey also…

I am speaking weekly with Molly’s clinician, he called today to discuss her previous week. He decided to increase the lamotrigine by 25mg morning only, change the lorazepam from 3mg to 2mg am with 1mg at midday and 1mg for PRN.

I have to trust this process and more importantly be there for Molly, it must be so awful…

Agreed to increase lorazepam to 3mg am starting tomorrow to be reviewed in one week.

Titration of a medicine means slowly increasing the dose of a medicine by very small amounts over days, weeks, or even months, to find the right dose that is effective for you. PRN – Sometimes medication may be required to be given ‘PRN’ (Latin phrase for ‘pro re nata’) meaning ‘when required Now let me…

I received the report today, it is long and was a hard read, the history of Molly was well documented and my concerns were around the following statements: 1. The constipation is associated to Quetiapine (antipsychotic) 2. Some of her hyper-manic episodes were precipitated by anti depressant prescribing 3. Severe depression episode precipitated by venlofaxine…
