75mg of Fluoxetine instead of 2 x 20mg of Fluoxetine.... ermm, I'd check that if I were you!?
75mg??? Fluoxetine usually comes in 20mg capsules don't they?
I just checked this morning. Its 40mg fluoxitine. Sorry.
Iam finding being in recovery more of a challenge than i had anticipated. For one thing i nave now noticed how much of my conversations in church has centered round my depression. Now that im not talking about it i found myself last Sunday telling people i would rather talk about something else other than my depression.
Wondered if any of you guys had the same experience.
Yes. But that's a good thing, surely? Tho it's hard sometimes to remember how to have a conversation that didn't involve my health ....
I am constantly worried about my medication and that i am taking the correct ones, so i am memorizing them. I have stella medical app on my phone and i write them down everywhere. My next phase in recovery is to stop talking about health issues. I was reading Elijah and he had a serious problem with depression yet he still managed to find strength to serve God.
It's brilliant that you can talk about it to those around you!
I think that it'll be OK hunni, the more you get out and do different things the more varied your conversation will be.
Today i am just having a relaxing day and writing my story. Really though i am scared that if i adit i am getting better then i will be left to fend for myself. That is my biggest worry. I have to admit that i like going to the G.P. and the pdoc and the arthritis doc and even the dietitian because it was something to do. I am retired and i find that not working is a challenge. I have gotten involved in a couple of things like my art class and writing class and the outreach at the church but in all honesty i miss the market life. After all i was 35 years there man and boy and now all i have is my memories. Perhaps i will write a book on my experience as a market trader when i finish my short story. As i said: "the biggest fear is being alone".
It took me years to accept I couldn't work (I was on my way to the hospital to do my voluntary shift). I stopped off to pick up my meds and had a complete breakdown, right there in the shop in front of everyone, shouting at the manager then collapsing. Like you, I was a busy person. Over the years I've found things I could do without too much impact on my mental health, and so will you - you're already doing so. Just make sure you don't do too much ....
