I still have days where I can barely stand to talk to people and anything they say makes me snap and almost bite their head off. On those days I tend to stay out of the way and do something nice for me.

I've decided to keep a diary of how I'm feeling, any side effects, sleep etc from starting my new meds so that I can see how I'm progressing or how side effects etc are affecting me. I find each morning I'm really sluggish and headachey but at least I'm not lying awake each night for hours so I'm going to hold on to that.
It will probably take me all day to come up with a format to record everything. Anyone any suggestions? ..
Today I increase my Sertraline dose.

Mood diaries are brilliant.. You can buy them all ready to go from Amazon/ebay etc or you can make your own... I've done a quick google image search to give you some ideas... https://www.google.com/search?q=mood...w=1366&bih=609

Thank you so much Suzi. I have looked at a lot of them and am trying to come up with something that includes everything i need on it but still easy to read at a glance and not a chore to complete. wip

Tomorrow I'll take pics of my journal I've created to focus on the things I want/need to focus on and you can see how I went about it, if you think it'll help?

Mirtazipine definitely seems to be helping with my sleep.
I'm not as dopey in the morning either although I do get tired during the day.
I'm not very motivated at the moment and I've already put on 3lbs in a week. I need to exercise more but I feel so heavy and tired a lot of the time. It also means when I'm hungry I'm not bothering to cook healthy, I'm grabbing junk food.
So i need to try and get my act together!! Everything still feels like too much bothercand my mood hasn't lifted any but I do think the flashbacks are reducing again.
My aims for today...... go for a walk, eat a proper lunch and tea.

I'm so glad it's helping! Sorting out sleep is so important.
Try meal planning, it helps me... and then snack on less junk - although I'm queen of doing that too!

SMum it's so easy when you're struggling to miss meals or eat junk food I know I do. It sounds good your not as sleepy and flashbacks have reduced. You're managing to sleep okay at night which is good.

Thanks Mike. So far I'm on track. 45mins walk on the beach with the dog and i have stuck to healthy salad for lunch. Not sure about dinner yet but I'm hungry yet I've been snacking on fruit etc. my appetit seems unsatiable. Definitely need to cook a proper meal or ill be hitting the junk food!!
