How I build clinical & emotional support & manage medications
I was able to have a call every week with doctor Erin Bellamy. That really helps me. And I was doing keto blood tests every morning to track. I was able to notice that 1 mmol/g was not enough for me, and I needed to be between 1.5-2.5 I don’t remember; I think I was able to go down with the quetiapine. I am tapering it right now to a very low dose. I am at 25mg of quetiapine, while in my last manic phase 2 years ago I was under 800mg. When I lowered it several weeks ago, I did not experience any symptoms. Later in my journey, I hope to also lower my lithium medication. If I have a full day where I don’t feel good, I will consider taking back 25mg of quetiapine.
