Feeling better -- enough to get some work done

[crowdog66]

Feeling better... enough to get some productive work done today (I hope, I haven't actually started yet!)

How wonderful to actually get dressed and leave the apartment, WITHOUT every movement and moment being an agony of having to force myself. To sit in Bread and Circuses, a neighborhood cafe, and have a hot chocolate with my husband and enjoy the bright winter sunlight. How wonderful to actually take pleasure in little things!

Hopefully I'll have time later tonight for a bit of RP chat with MR. I'll have to see how much I've gotten done on "Captain Canuck" and how well I feel. I was thinking about dropping my Nortryptyline back to 5 tablets a day (125 mg) because it might be the extra tablet that's causing increased depression as a side effect -- but I started the increased dose of 6 tablets 2 weeks ago, so this bout of feeling better MIGHT be the drug actually starting to kick in and be effective. (There's a good writeup of Nortyptyline at http://www.trappedminds.org/meds/antidepress/Pamelor.php)

Life doesn't hurt so much anymore. That's something to be genuinely thankful for.
