Saw my pdoc and T today. Both said I have taken on too much with university and work. They both suggested I drop a unit at university as I am putting myself at risk of triggering an episode due to stress. This is a big disappointment to me but I tend to agree with them. I have barely been coping, anxiety high, waking up panicked in the middle of the night and generally very overwhelmed. My resilience to stress right now is poor.
So I have to decide which unit to drop now. My pdoc is also concerned about my depressed mood so is putting me back on Prozac short term. In the past it has made me hypo but the other meds I'm on should keep me stable. Does concern me but I just want to not feel so low and empty most of the time. I want some life in me. Well here I go. Starting Prozac tomorrow.
