Today was quite a bit better than yesterday. I think I'm starting to notice a pattern when I get hit really hard like this. My mood improves first and my body follows, usually a few days after. On top of that, I seem to get a creative rush as I'm coming out of a really bad slump -- I spent all afternoon writing so furiously I think I might have hurt my hand.

It took a lot out of me and I'm incredibly tired now, so I'm going to turn in early. I'm just glad my mood seems to be looking up. Going to try to take it easy for a couple of days and hopefully my body will catch up too.
I'm not really sure if this is a cyclical thing or what, but the pattern is definitely there. It didn't used to be. I'd really like some answers ... The doctor doesn't want to do anything without a consult from a psychiatrist, but it's apparently going to take a long time to get me in for an appointment. I'm pretty sure this guy is the only one for the area, too. Oh well, I'll get in eventually.
Thanks so much for all your support everyone. I really don't know what I'd do without you.
