My stomach is worse. Sigh ... GP and pdoc believe it is most likely due to tapering off of Lithium. Although, this severity of stomach symptoms is rare. My stomach was in bad shape in May/June. Many tests were done finding me to be in perfect health. It was thought that the PTSD and anxiety was the cause. I had been struggling a lot at that point. It passed and I was back to normal by July. The PTSD has been much calmer lately so it would be weird for that to be the cause. Oh well, either way all I can do is try to eat and drink enough, try to have a normal (ish) life, and wait it out. I won't be lowering my Lithium dose any time soon.

Today I noticed my physical issues are starting to effect my mood. I am flatter than usual, and snappy. AGGGGHHH ... I really am trying to be zen about all this. Not much planned for the rest of this week now I feel so s***. Still not sleeping the best so I have a lot of time to kill. Thankfully I am picking up my partner tomorrow and he is staying with me for a few days. I will do my best not to be grumpy around him. I want to have fun.
