I hope you feel better soon @Wander

I'm feeling better 2 weeks into the increased dose of Wellbutrin. I'm thinking of leaving the dose where it is to leave room to increase it again in case I need it in the fall/winter.

I haven't gotten to baseline yet but it's definitely better than 2 months ago. I'm thinking that maybe things will continue to improve plus I'll try to get out into the garden and stuff like that.

I'm continuing to write. I'm working on finishing a book I started earlier this year and hope to have it done in another month or so. It's about astronomy. I'm in the early stages of planning another book about astronomy that I hope to finish early next year.

I'm just sticking to what I'm good at in the hopes of getting some motivation going.

Writing is really hard some days: sometimes the words are just gibberish and other times each word is a battle to get onto the page. Then I edit a lot and rearrange sections and sentences. I keep old copies around and compare to what I have now and can see that things are moving along, which helps keep things going when things are tough.

I'm keeping up on the threads here and thinking of all of you.
