Oh Penny. I'm so sorry about your not getting that job. I know you were excited about the opportunity.
Insurance companies just don't look at the big picture do they? It's obviously less expensive for a day program than for an inpatient hospital stay. As I've said before though, I'm glad you have mental health professionals who are willing to go to bat for you.
I'm dropping the Effexor. I think those few good days weren't so much that it was working as that it was a good step on the way to a bad hypomania. My pdoc agrees and we're dropping the doseage.
But good news is that the stressors that caused me to go on Effexor to begin with are not going to happen after all, so I think I'll continue along just on Depakote and Klonopin.
Hope things start looking up for you.
Dinah
