Sometimes I day dream about Xanex. It's lovely calming affects and the way it makes me not care about anything. There are little Xanex fairies fluttering around in my day dreams today. Sigh...they are so pretty!
Alas...I have none.
6 days with a 7 year old without mood stabilizers...it didn't go quite as I expected it to go.
I was expecting rages. Big ones. Tossed boxes of crayons. Ripped papers. Maybe a thrown chair or two...
Not one rage visited us. Not one! *the crowd goes wild*
What we did get was hyper...lots and lots of hyper mania. It was a hyper, bouncing off the walls party. And unfortunately I was not the one bouncing....I was the one climbing them!
It was strange really. I haven't seen PDiddy that happy in quite some time. And it was really nice. I enjoy seeing him happy. Just not THAT happy. He was officially a jumping bean. He couldn't sit still for more than two seconds. EVERYTHING was funny, even punishments. In some ways it was easier to parent him, in others not so much. By the end of the day I was exhausted!
So here we are on day two of our Tegretol/Prozak cocktail. Yesterday was still pretty hyper, but he fell asleep by 7:30 last night. Poor guy. Today he seems calm AND happy. Is this desk wood? Cuz I totally need to knock on it!
And doesn't it just figure that when he's all high and happy I'm all low and irritable. Sigh...I'm kinda jealous. I'm one big fat crank pot and I just want to stay in bed (cuz my blankets are super fluffy yo!) and sleep all day. Or read. I like reading...
So um yeah...that's all I got. Oh update...my book is going great!

Tegretol XR has been a good mood stabilizer for me. I hope your son has the same success.
I'm so glad he wasn't violent during this time, maybe a visit to Starbucks will give you a lift or cereal for breakfast so Mommy can rest!
