Sorry have been offline for a while have been in a dark place for a while now and finally admitted defeat and went to see my doctors, after a good chat and a bit of diagnosis she diagnosed me with Anxiety/Depression and have been on 10mg of Citalopram since 18th March.
Due the tablets bashing me about I got signed off work during this time as the medication is a real energy sapper and was falling asleep at various times of the day like a baby but then buzzing and wide awake till the early hours.. really hope that bit subsides quickly as feel bad and the addition of no sleep send you crazy anyway
Hopefully now I’ve confronted and admitted it to myself also having seen a doctor things can only getting brighter
There must be so many people like me just battling away day by day by themselves, feeling rubbish, hopeless, worried, nervous who have not realised that they can be helped but for one reason or another haven’t clicked that it’s not them it’s not their fault and that to ask for a little help is perfectly fine, if not briefly uplifting knowing now that someone’s got your back!
They intend to up my dosage to 20mg over the next few days which should be interesting and have read that people have been really spaced out for the first few days !?! and have a councillor booked in to talk to as I don’t want to be popping pills forever!
I’m feeling positive now I’ve offloaded my problems to the Dr , have a great family, an awesome daughter and good friends so hopefully this will just be a blip and I’ll be back on track real soon
Also read online that someone said they got their sense of humour back – Praise the Lord I’ve missed that recently!!!
So i intend to write bit of my rollercoaster journey with a bit of humour to brighter days and hope you enjoy reading it – ill try to keep the darkness away but guess there will be many UP and DOWN days
LOVE, PEACE & PHARMARCY
