YAH, I am very worried that it has something to do with the Lithium. I was just telling T last week that my biggest fear is that the lithium DOES work and I end up being some flatline lamer or something.

Before the depression set in I:
was writing poetry
was playing my flute again
was drawing portraits
was reading
was doing needlepoint
enjoyed going out
had been organized by way of having a to-do list each day
was even keeping on top of my bank account

Now every single one of those things has gone away, and even more. But the mood is better. Is this still part of depression or is it Lithium? I do not know. I will talk with T tomorrow.

I can barely respond to posts anymore. I only have spurts in which I can respond. I tried really hard this morning and was able to respond to a few posts in different forums. For the most part, I have a really difficult time focusing long enough to read through someone's post. I don't respond because I either can't focus on reading it and don't want to give a half-assed response, or I really feel as though I can't think of anything of substance to say.

Where did I go?
