Day 10

    Last night was dose 10 and I FINALLY got a full night's sleep! And today there happened to be 2 less walks to do than what had been posted yesterday so that made it 6 visits before my 3 p.m. therapy appointment and 3 visits after. But there were still 2 visits to squeeze into the 7 to 9 a.m. window. I already drove over 41 miles today, apparently. What's funny is that despite my good mood, I was still able to get into a panic pretty easily this morning over small stuff. During one of my early morning visits it took forever to get a cat to eat and I couldn't find a bag for the kitty litter...small stuff and I was extra anxious. Due to the positive mood I woke up in, I didn't know I was so tightly wound up until then. But that's just the way I'm wired, I guess.

    Today, after waiting 10 days, is another day for therapy, so that will be good. A whole lot of nothing has happened and that's part of what has been bothering me. I need to move out ASAP, I am STILL waiting for the support group to start, despite the medication I've been on, I feel more or less exactly the same. But I think that is in part due to the fact that it interfered with my sleep. You can't expect an anti-depressant to lift your mood while it is taking away all of your sleep.
