Feeling Good...Finally! Resolution's Grats 07/01/08Submitted by Resolution on Tue, 07/01/2008 - 11:08am.
...still have bouts of anxiety here and there, but I got 8-count em- 8!- full hours of sleep last night without relying on meds like Tylenol PM or Ambien or Benedryl! I think my issues with my family's addiction to meds and my father's own history of bipolar made me more fearful than anything else...so I was possibly afraid to accept what was going on around me. I feel alive for the first time in a long time, dare I say it? Even hopeful. I can't thank you Mamas (Special Hugs to goldie in fact) for giving me support when I needed it most. So here's some early morning grats... 1) Meds are helping. Thank you guys again. Sorry I've been lurking more than writing. Just reading your posts helps my day seem a little brighter. I totally know how you feel! I started on Lex*apro about 4 months ago and I cannot believe the difference it's made. I'm so proud of you for taking that step and so happy that things are working out for you! lm
i can't even begin to tell how excited i am for you that your meds are helping, and that you are beginning to feel alive again! depression can be so debilitating for familes to go through, and it's a relief to hear that you AND your family are doing much better. and sex 4 nights in a row??? wooooo! rock on res, that's awesome!! |
I have kind supportive friends...both "real" and "cyber".
Happy to read you feel good enough to post a grat list and go outside...always a sign for me that the black clouds are lifting.
And I think 8 hours sleep is about the most beautiful thing in the whole entire world, next to my son's sweet face.
Keep taking good care of yourself mama. Hugs.
