Feeling better, or is it temporary???

The last day or so, I have had a sudden burst of energy, very little tearfulness, but still tired at the end of the day. Could it be that my meds are starting to kick in? Or is it because my pdoc let me take off work for a week to let the meds kick in because I couldn't quit crying?? Not sure how to handle it. I get very little accomplished. Still feel a little numb. The dizziness I had last week is gone (withdrawing from the other meds). It has only been a week and a half, not really long enough to get the full effect of the meds. Scares me that this is only temporary. Regie

EVERYTHING is temporary. Ups. Downs. Goods. Bads.

The trick is learning to surf the waves without falling too much.

I agree with the post above for the most part...I have been told in the past that, that if your looking for constant happiness you'll never find it, because happiness is an emotion and like all emotions they come and go. What we should be looking for is peace...being content. Searching for infinte happiness is like searching for where the day begins...techincally its an impossible task!

*steps down from the soap box*

I hate Temporary...but I agree with the last post....we just have to get use to riding out the waves...sometimes a BIG one hits me and I go under and down into the darkness....just like these past fews weeks......I wanted my feeling of high bliss for the last two weeks ago to last forever....but I came spiraling down a week ago and I told my T how I was feeling like I was slipping and he talked to me and I hung onto him and we are now in a holding pattern....talking and trying to stop me from falling into the black hole again...he says I am depressed again right now but just not as bad as last time and I am to keep talking to him....
Hang in there and talk to us we can help you ride out the waves .....take care

I feel your meds are kicking in . Mine only took a week (zoloft ). Dont worry about it, just enjoy feeling better and hope it lasts. Mine made a big difference and yes it was a scrary feeling. Im glad your feeling better and hope it lasts. Take care, pixy.
