Day Two - First time taking an SSRi drug |
Jul 09 2012 |
I must say i wan't really expecting much to happen even though I am always open and concentrated on my feelings an physical senses. I must say I was a bit more positive today, despite stayingawake almost all night because of my crying daughter. I am a little sceptical that a drug like this starts working right away, and am looking at this as a placebo effect, which is infact the best kind of mecicine :)
So, positive today, and not so prone to negativity. But I look at the very good weather, my interaction with more people as a big contributing factor. I am looking forward to seeing how I will sleep tonight, and also to continuing taking the drug.
I am also starting to listen to "The Mindful Way Through Depression". So far an absolutely wonderful program, that does thing very systematically, and for me who has a lot of experience with meditation it made me re-think how I approach meditation. And my "illness" has a lot to do with the "wrong" way I have been doing things.
I did also get a comment today suggesting I look into bipolar disorder, and according to the psych nurse it could also be cyclothymia. I am not ruling anything out at this point and am looking forward to doing a real psych eval.
