Hey nicky,
Yes, I would consider myself semi-functional before. I could at least force myself to work. I had isolated myself, didn't want to go out, eating continually, had quit walking in the mornings, continual feelings of despair but could make myself function if I had to and anger sometimes. Moderate..?
All of this which has been getting worse over quite a length of time. Think I should have been on an AD long ago.Now I feel like totally aware of stuff but just sort of sit there and stare, I don't do anything about it.
I was never a big druggy, but I did a few lines of coke in the 80's.
Are all AD's sort of a stimulant?
Right now I feel totally burnt out with intermixed short lived feelings of being wired.Even this has taken me 10 or 15 minutes to write.
I must admit though I think there is some good. Either that or I'm just wired.
I've had sex twice this week.
Not eating as much.
Have a feeling of hopefulness, I think that's what it is.
Dealing better with strangers, had to do some stuff yesterday.
It's not nervousness around people but more like I don't want to listen, it doesn't matter what you're saying. Casual conversation that I've been tuning out immediately for quite awhile.I want to feel better, like my old self. Friendly, kind, funny...I was very outgoing and involved.
I ended up with Effexor because the dr. had free samples.
I move up to the 75mg tomorrow.
