Something’s not right

Feeling miserable - could it just be the meds?

Feeling miserable - could it just be the meds?

Hi forumites,

Been feeling increasingly miserable lately. A lot of things are playing on my mind (the ceremony, family or lack thereof, constant health problems) and they're all seemingly getting me feeling really down. I've been having warped nightmares too... things that don't even make sense... and I am not getting a good night's sleep at all lately.

Added to this, I ran out of antidepressants a few days ago. It hasn't helped at all and I guess that is my fault. I lost my prescription and had to get in to see the GP again. It took a while to get in.

Oh well, that's me. Crying at the drop of a hat.

Hi @outlander... yes I've been making changes to my lifestyle already. I've switched to drinking only sugar free soft drink (not that I drink a lot of the stuff) and no longer cooking with salt. As for the candy jar, well it's still full in that I haven't touched it yet. I also made sure I am taking my thyroid medication properly, as thyroid disease can make it easy to gain weight and difficult to lose it. In a week's time, I will be on my on week away in the mountains, so I am planning on plenty of bushwalking.

Hi @outlander, been pretty busy today. We gave the dogs a bath and then cleaned up the yard and decorated the arch for the ceremony next Saturday. Then we started sorting out tables and chairs for the reception. We have about 50 bows to tie to backs of chairs! This week will be insanely busy, so apologies if I'm not here too much.

Wow @Queenie - one more week!! you wont know what to do with your time once its all over 🙂 (Which will probably be a welcome break!). Are you going away for a honeymoon? You sound like you're so organised though! If you do 10 bows a day it'll be done in plenty of time 😄 😄

Hugs, we'll be here for you when you have a moment! look after yourself and will be celebrating for you from here!

Hi @Former-Member, I figure if the three of us get into it, we'll get into the bows pretty quickly. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday are gonna be full on as caterers, cake and party hire people do deliveries.

@outlander I am having a commitment ceremony. It's the closest I can get to marrying my gf without going to another country.

Hi @Queenie

You will have been very busy this week. I've been thinking about you and hoping you're feeling a lot better so that you can enjoy the ceremony tomorrow.

Wishing you both every happiness in your lives together. Congratulations Queenie!
