Great Med
Today is a great day! My new medication is working well with my body, a few minor side effects but no weight gain! I can’t beleive they finally made a pill that is effective without the dreaded weight gain, yay! I feel like the fog of depression and anxiety has lifted. I’m able to wake up in a good mood and stay in a good mood. – XOXO CrazyInHeels
Confessions of a Manic
Holy Bananas!!! I’m all over the place manic right now! My thoughts are flyin by a million miles a minute and I can’t even focus on one thing long enough to grab one down and focus on it. I’m super excited to be feeling this way! Finally I’m out of the depression, at least for this exact moment, I can’t make any promises about what will happen in the next half an hour, it’s a roller coaster… what can I say?! This is why people call us “crazy”. I feel like I could run a 15k marathon and still have enough energy to go home, clean the house, make dinner, run another marathon, have the BEST sex of my life and then get right back out there for another marathon! I’m going, going, going but with nowhere to go. My mind is whizzing by. Even as I type I’m amazed at how my thoughts are altered for this moment. I’m euphoric, captivated by this new found happiness. The only downer… how long will the ride last and when it’s over willI crash?! Yikes!!! In the meantime I will remain optimistic and get as much done as I can possibly think while I have the energy. This is FABULOUS!!! – XOXO CrazyInHeels
Manic
I’m happy to be medicated! Is it possible to still feel a little manic when you’re on two mood stabilizers? I have no problem with this, who doesn’t like the manic high, but I don’t want the lows of depression when it subsides?!!!!! Definitely a great question for the doctor tomorrow… -XOXO CrazyInHeels
Thanks to Meds
Happy that I am consistently waking up in a good mood and that I’m able to get myself out of bed. I’m still not a morning person but I feel as though I have a reason to get out of bed. Last night I was relieved that my anxiety did not make it’s daily visit. I went home and was able to cook dinner, clean up, do laundry, and catch up with friends all with a happy attitude
It’s crazy to think that because of a few small pills the “crazy” thoughts and depression are subdued. – CrazyInHeels
Hanging On For Happy Days
I feel like grabbing a martini after work to let lose. Sometimes a couple of drinks does help after a long day, not too many though! My thoughts are slow and my energy is low. I saw the doctor today and we increased my Tegretol. I’m hoping to see better results in a few days. I asked the doctor if my energy and interest in things that I once loved would return because at this point I’m hopeless. It’s crazy how your mood can just diminish within a few days. I have a loss of interest, lack of energy, and sadness that doesn’t go away. I started crying at work yesterday for no reason. Thank god I work at a small office with women who are more than understanding. I’m trying to pull it together as best I can but it’s so very hard. I can’t just make these feelings go away, oh… how I wish I could. Keep your fingers crossed for the new meds. – XOXO CrazyInHeels
Happy & crazy… back to me
I am so very excited to report that I’m feeling like myself again. I have climbed my way out of the deep black hole of depression that was closing in around me. I actually turned the radio up in the car and bounced around with the windows down this morning. That’s how I know I’m in a good mood, I listen to music on the way to work. I didn’t feel like I was stuck in the same routine of absolute hopelessness that I have been so graciously blessed with the last month or so. I thought for sure I was going to wake up in a bad mood for the rest of my life, not even a brand new pair of heels would cheer my up :p I’m back to living, loving, feeling, and laughing. I am my CrazyInHeels self. – XOXO CrayInHeels
