taper update

Feeling good. I will speed up my appointment and suggest Zyprexa -25%. Next must be Depakote -50%, but I would not risk doing it that soon. I will simply speed up two next appointments to hopefully agree to do two cuts in three-four months.

That way I will arrive at 3 meds all in moderate doses. It's still weird polypharmacy but much lighter version of it.
