Wrong

The day after Christmas, I got hit with COVID—hard. They gave me a five-day dose of medication, which, fun fact, tasted exactly like eating pennies. Delicious. On top of that, they told me I had to stop taking my Latuda (aka my bipolar meds) for those five days, which seemed less than ideal, but what choice did I have? Anyway, my psychologist had already canceled my last appointment, so I hadn’t seen her since before Christmas, meaning I never actually restarted the Latuda. I figured she’d totally freak out when she found out I’d been off it for a month—especially since my therapist was practically in a meltdown over it, convinced I was about to “have an episode.” But nope. Instead, she hit me with, “Yeah, I probably misdiagnosed you. You’re just an overly emotional person who doesn’t always handle stress well, especially with family.” Casual. So now, she’s officially taking bipolar off my chart, which—honestly…… I find very interesting!
