Thanks dbc, Midnightblue, bleauberry, Phillipa, gg, SLS, Justherself,

I really feel you all care about me. Thanks for caring. It seems like the majority vote is to not fix something that isn't broken. i.e. don't mess around with what works.

In the past, I have expressed an interest in becoming med free and perhaps my pdoc is just trying to make that happen for me.

The thing is, my pdoc mostly gives me psychotherapy. Perhaps I feel good because of psychotherapy?

No, that is too simple. Why would she increase my meds sometimes if she didn't think it was doing something?

I think my pdoc doesn't like the Risperdal. She never did anything to its dose, it was always increasing the SSRI. I think she likes SSRIs a whole lot. I'm on two of them.

She also doesn't like benzos. She's only given me 3 0.5mg instant dissolve tablets and that was for a very specific circumstance.

I think what I'll do is follow her instructions and see if I get worse.
