    C&P confusion

    It may just be routine but another thing is that many people with schizophrenic spectrum have eye tracking problems as well as early REM activation during sleep studies. I remember learning that many years ago in a few psych classes but as yours is schizoaffective those might not be the case so...

    Time in Service

    yup that's exactly what he said PTSD and TBI are the 50 meter targets so that's mainly what the focus on and could never really dial in for his treatment. Seroquel didn't work so well for him and he got pretty fat with lithium when I went to see him in the hospital. Now that he is out he is...

    Air Force recommends MEB... Army doesn't return phone calls

    The only antidepressant I ever was put on made me think that I had solved the worlds energy problems by creating a machine that generated electricty by using alternators to power a dc motor that spun them and converted DC amperage into into ac current. It was wonderful until I realized I had no...

    Bipolar II and GAD

    Well hopefully the treatments are working somewhat for you. I have had nothing but somewhat mixed states so I am thinking that they will either need to up the meds or try something else. Thanks attitude for answer and I apologize to everyone else if I hijacked this thread

    Ad Sep in MEB

    Honestly I would think so. Normally anything mental health is extremely private even PCM is not allowed to review unless it relates to a possible symptom and usually they only review to make sure medications can mesh.

The psychiatrist who prescribes the meds does not know about the hospitalization and his description is that I...
