Hi, I am here.
BTW, I'm a she. Don't worry, lots of people seem to make that mistake, my name being similar to "Noah".
Thanks for the concern. I am low, it's true, but not in danger. I'm pissed at myself for staying home from work today, and of course there are a million things to do that I haven't, home- and work-wise.
I slept a lot today, and seem to have needed it. I only hope I can sleep tonight after all my daytime sleep.
As for the meds, I guess I'll give it a few more days, maybe even another week, to see if there is any improvement. I think the doc said I can increase the thyroid again to .05 (ie, two pills from one and a half). I'll call him tomorrow and ask.
The multitasking thing is still part of the issue. I get so overwhelmed because I can't organize myself enough to isolate one task at a time. Not that I was ever great at it, but the way I am now is not my "normal" functioning, in quotes because how long does it have to be before you lose the right to claim your previously normal level of functioning as your normal level of functioning. Did that make sense?
SOmetimes I see people who are slightly manic or just super energetic and happy, and I wish I could syphon off some of their brain chemicals to inject in mine. They could use a bit less, some of them, and I certainly need more. Like my friend who has so much energy he calls at 10 pm on a weekday to ask if I want to do something tonight. Now clearly, this man has chemicals to spare.
