This is my 6th week on the Wellbutrin SR and my third week on the Celexa and I'm feeling much better. This morning I temporarily misplaced my work laptop and it did not send me into the usual panic. I calmly thought about it and remembered that I put it in the trunk of the car last night when going to my volunteer job. I'm currently on call.
I'm also feeling more relaxed and alert. I'm also not having as many dark thoughts and my mood is lighter. I was able to have sex last night with my partner, finally. A nurse told me that it might take a while to adjust to the new meds and that sexual functioning would most likely return in a few weeks. It's starting to happen!!!
I'm not eating myself out of house and home like I was on Effexor and I'm beginning an exercise program again. I'm being gentle with myself this time. I'm not exercising out of fear of being fat again. I'm doing it to feel better and to remain in decent shape. Therefore I'm more gentle about it. Maybe that will help me to stick with it?
This morning I have glimmers of hope. Dare I believe that this will continue? I hope I'm at a turning point. I could use some emotional stability.
