Good day yesterday

Yesterday was my birthday and usually birthdays are a source of contention at our house with Emily. She feels like all the attention should be on her. There have been many a ruined day if it was not what she wanted. David and I were going to go out to eat by ourselves but since we usually go out as a family on birthdays, the girls protested at that. I decided for us to go to Bonanza to eat and dreading the usual fights and bad mood from Emily, she was in a good mood for once. We enjoyed the evening out and had a great time.

I am also putting in a call to her psych doc. She has been on Geodon for the last 3 months and lately it has not been working. She has been agressive with her sister like before and now she is hallucinating again. Now she has seen a man in our yard when it was just her and Landon.  She also saw someone walking in the cornfield across the road. We have a dog outside that would let us know if anyone was there and he never saw anything.  When she was having a really bad psychotic break a couple of years ago, she claimed there was a  woman in her mirror, telling her to do awful things to us. It got to the point we had to take all mirrors out of the house so she couldnt see the face anymore. After we moved from that house, she never mentioned that face again. Hopefully soon we can get relief.
