I absolutely have to make a doctors appointment to be checked out for these headaches. They are going to be the death of me, literally. Every single day, at least 2-3, and nothing seems to relieve them anymore.
I went and saw the Psychiatrist for the first time last night. He was nice. He prescribed Lamictal, as a mood stabilizer and said it should also help with the depression. He said that it might help with the headaches, but from the info I found online, it says that the medication may cause headaches. I can't handle anymore than I already have now. I guess I will just start it and see what happens. When I told him about the self-mutilation, he was like "oh" and asked what I do. I told him that it's mostly scab picking, etc. but that I have cut before and he was just like, "oh ok." That kinda threw me off. I don't know what I was expecting as a reaction, but that wasn't it.
I have been doing amazingly well since I quit my night job. The biggest thing for me right now is my road rage and also how lonely I am starting to feel. This is the longest I have went living by myself since 2002, and it's starting to get rough. I don't want to be alone. I want companionship!!!
