Depression thread continued...

Haven’t been on any medication for a few months now, and I’ve not needed it so came off it all via help from the doctor.

I still have my little moments but I can cope and battle on with them.

Love seeing the positivity here from all people winning genuinely over the moon for you all!

Look to be leaving my job soon managed to grab my dream job part time recently so been doing two but soon il be full time
So can leave one.

Great news mate as I seem to remember you were really struggling not so long back. Sorry if I have you mixed up with someone else.

Much better mate. I have went from moving out of the family home in May and going on a long bender to sorting myself out a bit. Moved into a flat, started seeing someone new and its going really well so far. Still alot of work to do as there is always something negative going on but I am in the best head space I have been in for a long, long time. Feeling cautiously optimistic.

Great to hear mate
 
also noticed already that I have a bit of nausea and I don't want my lunch. Started a really good gym/food plan a couple of weeks back that I reckon might take a hit!

I am on a call this afternoon where I need to present where we are on a big project. goodness knows what nonsense I am going to mumble. maybe not the best day to start these tablets :lol:
 
Day 1 review - start feeling slightly spaced out, not actually unpleasant at all really, around 90 minutes after first pill. 2 hours in and I had some slight stomach pain like trapped wind, went to the bathroom and it was like water pouring out of me. had 2 spells of that over the space of around an hour. stopped me feeling hungry and didn't want my lunch. no big nausea but just underlying enough to stop me wanting food. overall felt pretty fine, slightly chilled even with the spaced out stuff and I just went with it. that feeling wore off around 5-6 hours in and last night felt normal. took a bit longer to get to sleep last night but once I did I slept fine.

day 2 - took pill at 8am today. stomach just gurgled a bit. could be nothing. will find out in a few minutes I guess
 
Evening all! Hope everyone is doing as well as can be.
First week in new job and it’s going well. Got a spring in my step for first time in months.

Mam starts her chemotherapy tomorrow so I hope it goes well.

Always here for anyone if you need a chat. Lots of love always Rhubarb. Xx

day 2 night time - insomnia and a headache,
day 3 was fine but I cut my work day short as I was so tired I couldn't take in any information properly
day 4 pill having no negative effects.

should I be feeling any positive effects by day 4? I thought it would take around 4 weeks but I am sure I do feel something small already (placebo?)
