I think the medicines are helping. I am feeling better in general -- even if I cant attribute it to specific symptoms of my disorder or disease (dis-ease? Whichever sounds less scary lol). I am finding myself at least mentally in a better place. Let's hope for the uptick to continue and minimal side effects. I'm quite worried about things like weight gain but I've been doing some extensive reading and while "weight neutral" may not be the correct term to use, they are much more weight friendly than some others. But, right now, if it works-- it works. Take it for what it is.

Nothing new to report really. Got therapy Friday, and my psych doc next Friday. I'll try to prepare a few things to hopefully make strides to getting better. This is the first time in a long while where I felt a bit of hope/inspiration to move forward in some aspect of my life. It's a good sign, right?
