my new docs and meds are going very well.... I am slowly being weened off all my old meds and have started Geodon. The DBT is tough but really working with a significant decrease in target behaviors....anxiety levels are up, but that is to be expected with all the changes and less self harm....

1. So glad to hear this RP. |
|
Good support from new docs and adjustment to new meds - hope that the upward swing continues for you and that the anxiety also soon subsides.

3. I'm OK.....not sleeping too well lately |
|
and having the usual heebie-jeebies and desire to hibernate from the very long nights and shorter days here in the North.
I just invested in a Daylight lamp, but understand that to get the most benefit you have to start early in the autumn. But it is nice even psychologically to be able to switch on a bright light in the house that is supposed to be like a sunny day! :-)

4. Look up the latest research on Vitamin D and SADS. |
|
I take my vitamin D in the morning and the day time drowsiness is gone.

5. I have been taking the extra Vitamin D in the mornings since the Canada studies |
|
but don't notice much difference in my sleep patterns. But I admit, I stay up too late sometimes - often here on DU because when it is 1-3 a.m. here it is the most interesting, active time on DU! :D
Thanks for your tip.
