A few weeks ago, I posted how I felt disconnected from my children. Well through the power of drugs and pure will power, I feel connected again. I feel like I am their mom again. We had a really great weekend.... it was lazy! We spent a lot of quality time together. Watching movies, cuddling, playing, talking.... just really nice.
And the moment I knew I was feeling better and not depressed, stressed, anxious or overwhelmed... was last night as I was getting to go meet Goofball. The boys were wild animals. For a few months now this has just been the killer for me. I would be wiped out and almost crying. I just could not deal.
Well last night, I handled it like a champ. In fact I got involved a little bit. When it was time for me to leave, I just told them to be good. I figure they were because I got no calls from the babysitter!
Soo hurray!!! I feel so, so much better. I know the meds aren't working this fast but just the relief of having that appointment behind me. Plus I know I had a lot of great support which I have not always had in the past, so it really helped me to push through it. (Thanks! everyone!)

I'm so glad you're feeling better. You sound a lot chirpier now. I bet the kids were glad to have their Mum back on form too!

that's great- so glad you're feeling connected again. :)
Yeah for you! You deserve it.
If it's not too personal, what are you taking? I think my own need tweaking. mk
Glad you are better. Snuggling is great medicine too. When mine were younger they were like little puppies climbing all over each other and me. I miss that!
I am on 50 mg of Zoloft right now. This is the second time I have been on Zoloft. I have also been on Paxil and Prozac but didn't do as well on those.
Thanks for all the kind words! Just the sleep I am getting is helping A LOT!
Awesome news!
