Hi Meri-Tuuli-
no, you're right. last week I posted about the med changes that my pdoc and I decided on.
I was hopeful for a few days, and then unhopeful for a few days. now I feel just drained and spacey, but that's how it usually is in the am. It's SOOOO hard to get out of bed after the elephant-tranquilizer sized dose of seroquel. coffee and provigil will kick in after a bit, but my head feels like it's full of porridge.
I hope you're right, that it's just a little dip. I've had a lot of stress and strife recently. I just wish I were more resilient, like I once was.
exercise- I stopped that in April. I need to start again soon. It's getting close to downhill ski season, and my legs are totally mushy. need to do squats, lunges, lots of cardio and some core work. And it IS getting darker. yes.
how about in Finland- what time is it getting dark there? Here it is light from about 7:15-6:30pm.
I'm not sure about these benzos though. maybe I should try just taking a half tablet in the morning and saving the other half for the rest of the day, if needed. The very first time I took it, I felt a fairly obvious effect of mood dampening. Maybe my body has since acclimated to having a .5g dose once in the am, but that might leave me with some kind of "low"
