I'm back on my meds now. I conveniently, as always, forgot about the wonderful world of side-effects, especially reintroducing Lamictal into my system. Headaches, nausea, light sensitivity. Plus, fun new Wellbutrin effects that I have yet to research. If it makes me gain weight, I'm going to cry.

Right now, since I can't nap, I'm going to work on something I'm putting in to [livejournal.com profile] maggiesox's package for super-always-on Red Sox mojo. xD

Wellburtin did me dirty- both me and my friend suffered from the same side-effects- uncontrollable and INTENSE mood swings. I remember in the first month I started taking it (this was only for the first month, mind- the side effects- I guess from the adjustment?) I cried hysterically (screaming) for about 3 hours and had no idea why it was happening.

Oh jeez. My doc told me it would give me a boost out of the flat depressed feeling. I have to see her in two weeks, we'll see how it treats me until then. Thanks for the warning. &hearts

*hearts back!*

I wish you luck with it. I was on a combo of Wellbutrin 300 ( I think) and Lexipro- I did that for about two or three years.

Going through some recent shit my counselor said I could either try holistic herbal treatments for anxiety and depresson or I had to see a psych and get on meds. Currently I'm on a regiment of herbals prescribed by a renown pharmacognacist (holistic pharmacist) and the only unfortunate thing is that they herbs are pricey and not covered by insurance. The stuff I'm taking is medical grade (not what you can get at Vitamin World or whatever). So far I've notice a significant decrease in my anxiety and my mood seems to have evened out a little. I've been on the treatment going on three weeks.

See, I have this issue where I can never send just one thing to a person. So aside from your book, you are getting something handmade which is being finished off right now. :D

I really, really wish I could instantaneously send this to you via transporter, because I cannot wait for your reaction to it. xD
