CODAC Health, Recovery & Wellness - Speedway

So my psychiatrist Matt Boutin is literally like a father/friend to me because when I was going through my phase of reoccurring hospitalizations Matt really took his time and helped me figure out my life and he never once judged me or felt left in the middle of unexplained diagnosis.

My visit with him this past week came with the idea of reducing/stopping my psychiatric medications and just keeping my sleeping medicine and my anxiety medicine " as needed" and I am perfectly fine with that because we tried to keep me on my duloxtine, naltrexone and prazosin but with me having 2 mild strokes back to back it was safer to discontinue them for my own safety reasons but to give my body a restart.

My health is #1 priority to myself because I want to live a somewhat normal life even if it takes awhile to possibly do that but I have a great team of providers and recovery coach/peer support.

I was against the idea of having a therapist because of my past experiences with them and getting blamed for what happened to me as a child but I am willing to give it a try but if it starts off bad that will be the end of it and I will find a IOP group, DBT group, CBT group or any other group that will help me understand myself and my trauma and teach me ways to deal with them without becoming upset and getting mad quickly.So my psychiatrist Matt Boutin is literally like a father/friend to me because when I was going through my phase of reoccurring hospitalizations Matt really took his time and helped me figure out my life and he never once judged me or felt left in the middle of unexplained diagnosis.
