I feel better and more optimistic in the evenings, too; maybe it does have to do with "things outside" winding down, and I have a better appetite at night. Sometimes I dread the daytime before my new meds started today; would look at a beautiful dawn sky only to realize I had nothing to look forward to, but was alive. I start swimming this week, to rev up my body; I'm looking to enjoy that, 'cause I've always loved to swim as work and enjoyment.
