I am really not doing so well & I am struggling. I can't seem to function too well atm. I am shutting down. I saw my psych today, and she doesn't think doing exercise science is going to be good choice to study because there is not much work available in this field.
I am not able to articulate too well, what is happening for me. I am just exhasuted and scared and alone.

@Zoe7 Kira is awake too, I am not sure what has happen with her, she has started running around the house lol She must have picked up on the happy vibe. I am glad you are laughing.
In some ways that interaction shows that your serotonin levels are increasing by what you have described. That is a good thing. But I do understand what you mean though ie that you are able to walk away and be on your own again. I don't have much interaction with people either except at the zoo. Perhaps that is why I felt comfortable with people for a short time.
I can stay up a bit longer but I will try to get some sleep soon. Its almost 3am your time and not long now until the sun comes up for you. I am feeling a bit sick instomach from my medication but I should be okay- I will have it a bit earlier tomorrow.
