Just got back from what we thought was going to be the last visit to our current psychiatrist. Apparently her replacement won't be taking over until after the 7th of September.

We ended up telling her things in a depth we've never gone into with any psychiatric professional. In exchange, she gave us a new prescription: Risperdal. I've been on it before with little results, but this is a higher dosage.

I guess she thought our visit was productive, because she kept us an extra half-hour. That's definitely not the norm for psychiatrists, so she must think it was some sort of breakthrough.

After much trepidation, we decided to give the new prescription a try. If it has no effect or makes us foggy we'll stop taking it. Our pdoc says it'll make it easier to keep Cyndi under control. I'm not sure if that's a good thing, but again, we'll give it a try.
