Wow, today is Thursday, March 29, 2012! I haven't wrote since Christmas. I just haven't been in the writing mood. I made it through Christmas somehow, it actually went better than I thought it would. So what's been up lately, well I just went to the doctor Monday and told them how I've been depressed and how totally exhausted I've been, so they changed up my medications. I'm now taking two Wellbutrins a day instead of one and taking only one risperdone instead of two. So far, I do feel a little more energy and I feel more alert. I stopped taking the trazadone all together. It was to help me sleep. I am having a little difficulty with the sleep. I'm waking up every few hours and dreaming like crazy. So I'm not really resting very well like I should be.
The doctor told me I have high triglycerides added now to my already high blood pressure, so this is stressing me out. I'm suppose to eat right and exercise. I did start exercising in January by getting on the treadmill and walking 35 minutes a day. But the last few weeks I've been sick, so I've fallen off the wagon. Now I'm having a hard time trying to get back on. The eating is the hardest part for me. It's hard to eat healthy when I have a small grocery budget and my hubby is not interested in eating healthy, so I can't afford to fix two separate meals. So of course, I've been stressing about that. All I can do is do the best that I can do.
My mood seems to be improved with my medication change, but I'm still not sure of what all changes there will be. I could have some anger issues with it. Meaning I get agitated easier. I'm not sure yet as it's only day 3 of my medication change. Hopefully I will continue to feel better and feel like getting ready and getting out more. I'm not sure where I would go, but I'll cross that bridge if I'm lucky enough to come to it because so far I don't like going out of the house. It's just the initial part of getting out in public that's the hardest for me. Usually once I'm out there I'm okay. It's just doing it that's hardest. So we'll see what happens. Meantime, as I always say, I'm just taking things one day at a time. I guess that's all for now, so until next time.
