Feel really scared at the moment. I just keep reminding myself that I am safe. My wife and I are completing the purchase of a small property today. We’ve been renting up till now. Keep getting this worry stuff about making a mess of the whole affair and the flat will be repossessed.
Keep trying to distract myself. But then feel bad about not really engaging with the move.
Saw my GP during the week and he is referring me to the psychiatric services. We spoke about the med treatment that I’ve been on for the past 8 months. (Venlafaxine 150mg and Olanzapine) This has proved ineffective. I suggested that maybe I could just wind off the medications as he is leaving it up to psych services as to the next step.
He said it was ok to stop the Olanzapine but to taper off the the venlafaxine. He suggested just taking one every second day for the first week then next week every 3rd day and so on. |I had my first day without the venlafaxine two days ago. Today will be my second.
I would appreciate any support or advice. Thanks
