My ramblings and wanderings through life

  • So, I guess I got busy this week and it passed without me writing as much. I’d like to say it was because I was busy writing other things (ie my lit review chapter!), but alas that was not the case. It was just an extremely busy week at work that left me exhausted. I slept in a bit this morning, which was good because I really need to ensure that I relax…

  • Surprisingly, I still feel fewer effects of the Cipralex with the higher dosage. It is good to not have the haziness, but I am not sure if it also means that I am calmer or if I am not as affected. I wanted to try staying at the 10mg for a while, but have to sort of see how we go with this dosage. It’s only been 3 days and a total of…

  • Strangely, I feel less hazy on the higher dosage. Maybe by this afternoon that will change as I notice I do get a little bit more tired. In any case, no side effects that I can see so far and I think I am calmer, but can’t say for sure. I will just have to be more watchful. Anyway, this weekend passed so quickly. I feel as if I still need another couple…

  • You may or may not have noticed that my April calendar has filled up for posts, which means that I have finished updating my posts on our Turkey trip. There are pics within the posts, or I will make a separate post with just the photo album. There are 778 pics in the album, so if you just want the highlights, I recommend just going to the posts. 😉 Our last free day…

  • Thought a little change in title posts might be refreshing. 🙂 I finished Day 6 of the 5mg of Cipralex and took 10mg last night. I will write more about the uppage later. Last night I was meant to go out with friends to another wine mixer, but after I got home from work I took a nap and woke up feeling just totally exhausted. It’s strange as I didn’t feel that tired…

  • Eventually I will stop counting the days, I promise. However, for the time being it is good for me to keep track of the days as I build up my dosage. I’m not sure yet if I will stay on 10-15mg or go to 20mg. Hopefully, by the time I build to that I will have seen my therapist again…. In any case, the only change I really notice is the continued moments…

  • Day 4 was the best day since I have been back from my trip. I think I am mostly recovered from the food poisoning and the three hour nap the day before along with an early sleep helped with the tiredness. So, it seems I am adjusting. My head still gets hazy moments, mostly in the afternoons, so am hoping that is just a phase or I guess I will get used to…

  • This morning I woke up at 4:30 and could never really go back to sleep until I finally had to get up around 5:30 for work. Clearly, I am still stressing out about things as that is the general reason why I end up awake or can’t sleep through the nights. However, either because of the lack of sleep or being hormonal and/or the cipralex, I was in a daze most of the…

  • Well, another day has passed and I feel okay still. My stomach is still not quite right from the food poisoning and a friend of mine has suggested that I may also have a common bacteria in my stomach. So, I am going to make an appointment to see a doctor about it. As for the meds, I think all is good for now. I have two more days at 5mg and then…
