One other thing. I've noticed something frightening this time around: I'll write something, and the next day forget having written it, or, at least, read it and thinking "that doesn't even sound like me."
In addition, I feel like I'm just floating through the days right now -- it's weird. It's some sort of affect (noun), where I'd separated from myself, and feel "unreal." I must have really messed with the chemicals in my brain this time around, and I'm wondering if my normal self will ever reappear.
For what it's worth, I took twice my dose of Lamictal today, and a Provigil yesterday for excessive rebound hypersomnia. Yet I don't think it's related to this.
It is possible I had a stroke? Or have done some permanent chemical damage? I'm frightened I'll go to work this week and simply blank out on the job. Planning a project; feeling creative: I just feel incapable of these right now. Depression? Damage? Both? Treatable?
Thanks,
amd
