This is why I love my therapist.
My email to him this morning:
Hi Robert,
The gabapentin didn’t work last night… I took 3 of them total by the time morning came… no rest. I feel SO defeated. Cried on the phone to my mom. I called Dr. Johnson and left a message for him to ask what I should do, but I’m reaching the end of my rope again and I don’t want to feel like my hopes were dashed, but they were.
I’m hoping he’ll try something else at least for the weekend (I don’t care if I’m dopey) so I can rest… I’m trying to hold on but everything feels like it’s slipping through my fingers again.
And his response:
Do not despair. Do what you need to do. Dot your “i”s, cross your “t”s, watch your breath, and remain safe. See what the Dr. has to say.
Keep me posted.
Robert
