Dona, I've been slightly up and way down a lot lately. Mostly down or maybe just numb. It's easy to tell someone not to feel shame about this illness but I have that recurring feeling.
I can't offer any advice that I can't, won't try myself.
I do try to be as honest as I can w/ others but sometimes I tell my shrink I'm better than I really am just so I won't have to deal w/ another med switch, etc. Keeping my head just above the water line is better than dealing with a whole new set of side effects.
Anyway, I'm just coasting and watching the months go by like days and the minutes go by like hours.
Jeez, this post probably hasn't done much to help!
But...you are not alone. You have a whole lot of company in this world.
My thoughts are with you. That's all I can give.Phil
