On the 16th of august my medications were changed. My Lamictal dose, which is a mood regulator much like Lithium, was raised and my anti depressant was lowered. It was working pretty good, apart from the sadness and stress i was feeling from moving out. On the 26th i started to get a rash in my left armpit. I thought nothing of it, maybe it was my deodorant. So i stopped using it. The rash kept getting worse and worse and worse. Then i remembered that the most common side effect of Lamictal is a rash. One that can become life threatening. It's rapidly spreading, it has gone across my chest and it's pretty gross. It's not contagious though. It is very painful and very disgusting. Today i am going to see Dr. Nelson so i can see what to do. She told me to stop taking my Lamictal all together, which scared me because without it i don't do very well. Hopefully today we can decide what to do.
Ethan hasn't been himself lately. I know i'm going to sound crazy, but he is also having a side effect of his medication. It causes depression and anxiety. Man oh man has it affected him. He does nothing but cry and scream. He doesn't eat he refuses to fall asleep. He never smiles any more. We're going to get his medications changed too. It's not easy living with a sad baby, especially one that wont eat.
Lynette, Julie and i went to a My Chemical Romance / Blink 182 concert last night. It was amazing. I haven't danced that much in my entire life. My Chemical Romance has been my favorite band since 2004. I had so much fun and i totally cried. Blink was alright. The opening band Matt and Kim were great. I really like them.
My room is getting more and more put together every day. We got some cabinet and stuff. My room looks really nice. I'll post pictures eventually,
