I hope you get in touch with your psychiatrist soon and find relief from your episode.

Thank you convalescence. Your description of it as living "through a haze," really hits home. The world even seems to look hazy. I don't remember what I did last Monday or Tuesday (someone asked me). It's really difficult to try and pretend that I'm normal with a normal memory, when I'm not. I'm very aware of not remembering things and think I must look like an idiot to others. Maybe this is just the depression talking. I hope, also to get in touch with my psychiatrist. I'm thinking about getting a new one, because she's so difficult to contact. I need help now. I left a message and no one called me back. Anyway, thanks for listening, your reply was a big help. Take care.
